Picturesque
Retiring May 1, 2023
You’re bound to make a scene with this Picturesque Stamp Set—and, oh what a scene it will be! A lovely nature scene that exudes tranquility and peace. The scenery stamps are designed to work together to create the panorama of your paper-crafting dreams. Use different shades of the same color for a lovely background look, or mix and match colors as you wish. Depending on your ink color, the larger, horizon-type stamp can represent a meadow, sand, or sky!
Here’s How:
1. Stamp Picturesque images:
-stamp smaller trees using Old Olive ink on the bottom of the card front. I find it’s easiest to line things up by starting with this image.
-stamp landscape lining up the trees using Balmy Blue ink. Stamp again to fill in the sky.
-stamp mountains using Blackberry Bliss ink. Stamp full strength and again without reining.
-stamp foreground trees using Early Espresso ink.
-fill in any Old Olive areas as needed.
-stamp birds using Early Espresso ink.
2. Swipe Crumb Cake inside the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder (retiring). Emboss Basic White card front.
3. Die-cut square out of card front using Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and Stitched Squares Die.
4. Adhere stamped image to the back of the card front so it shows through the opening.
5. Create a frame out of Pacific Point (retiring) card stock by nesting two square dies. Attach to the card front.
6. Attach to Early Espresso mat. Attach to Balmy Blue card base.
7. Stamp greeting using Early Espresso ink. I used the Stamparatus.
