Shark week.... by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone~

I have a card for you today. Summer vibes all the way!

To start I stamped the surfer wave . Then I sprayed the card with water and then began painting on the colors.

 I painted the foam of the wave with dr, ph Martin bleed proof white 'love that stuff!

I added more color to get the depth I wanted and then stamped the tiny sharks. Last I stamped the shark head small and used a combination of white gel pen and dr. ph. Martin white to get the look I wanted.

I typed the words on the computer on transpaerency.

I enjoyed doing this card. I matted the card to a blue cardstock to finish the card.

Stamps used:

Surfer wave       4842

Shark head -small     4065

Tiny shark silhouette    19854

Other suplies:

Distress spray stains

Dr. Ph Martin bleed proof white

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!
