CARDS

The main kit stamp set has the most amazing images to create mountains, a forest of trees, or a lake with a dock or all of the above.  I added several of the images in to create this lake/mountain scene....

First, I did some ink blending on the background panel to create the lake and sky.  I stamped and die cut the mountains and the tree link and then added those to the card.  I stamped the dock along with the sentiment and added those to the card front as well.  Last, I stamped and die cut the cute little swimmer silhouette and then added some birds in the sky.  I love how all these images are so easy to use to make a fun scene.

There is an add-on that you can buy that is SO stinking' cute!  Its' a little camper!

Or couse, I had to make it vintage.  I masked off the top and added in some pink ink along the bottom. The 2 stripes come out when you die cut and I added some gold ink to those to add the trim on.

I added some black Copic to the tire and a gray copic to the hitch.  The window are covered with vellum and then I added little curtains behind.  I took a white card base and added a gray panel to the bottom of the card with the heat embossed sentiment along the bottom an then popped the camper up on foam tape.
