For my
little outdoor canoe scene, I used lots of Craftin Dersert Diva digi stamp
sets:
Camping
outdoor set for the signs
Tribal
outdoor set for the mountains, Totem and Canoe
Tribal
moose set for the moose.
I
printed them all on Alcohol marker friendly paper and cut them out, then
colored them with alcohol markers
For the
backdrop I inkblended Distress Oxides : Blueprint Sketch, Cracked pistachio and
mermaid lagoon, masking off the edges to make a lake and a grass bit and sky, I wanted to keep the background
calm, but still give definition. I think there’s a lot going on the card,
without adding texture, like
water droplets or splatter on the solid
background.
I kept
to the same colors on the images for all my August cards, to make a coherent set,
also to keep the palette small as more colors make it even more busy.
For the
mountains I did add a line at the bottom, to make it easier for my plotter to
cut it out, you don’t need to do this, if you cut by hand, or make one layer
cards of course.
I
adhered all elements with liquid glue and or foamtape for dimension. I did also
color a paddle and wanted to add it in the background as if the Moose lost it,
but I decided against it.
