Stay Curious by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone! I made a card for my project today - enjoy-


I stamped the four images using memories dye ink. For the waves I used the surfer wave stamp and inked carefully to not include the surfer dude.  It makes a great splashing wave!

Next I   started to put the colors on. A combination of  spraying and using a paint brush with water. I worked to get the blending right.
I then went on to paint  the white Dr. P.H. Martin bleed proof white onto the waves. I also used A Signo white gel pen. I used a sand ink pad for the color of the beach. I felt the ocean needed more darker blue and I wanted it to blend better so I worked it until I was satisfied. Then added more bleed proof white to waves and water and rock. I dipped a toothbrush in the white and then splattered to get the right look.
Last I stamped the birds from the Banksey Hitchcock stamp, and added the stay curious sticker.
I decided a little sparkle would be a nice finish so I added that too- sadly it doesn't show up on the photos.


And that was it- oh, and I filled in the mermaid skeleton using the signo gel pen. 
Until next time!
