Good Morning Crafters!
For today’s project, I am using the Heron Habitat Bundle with the Oceanfront Stamp Set. The bundle includes five all-occasion messages to express joy, celebrate together, and show appreciation. You can create a tranquil scene with a blue heron in flight or calmly wading in water or you can expand your habitat with cattails, marshland patches, and a royal tern seabird or two.
I stamped the Heron twice – 1st time on Thick Basic White cardstock and then on the front panel (Basic White Cardstock) with Basic Gray Ink. I then stamped the cattails inking them up with Garden Green Ink for the leaves and stems and Soft Suede Ink for the cattails.
The water was inked up with Pacific Point Ink and the Garden Green Ink for the small hill. Both images are from the Oceanfront Stamp Set. I lightly sponged the sky to create blue skies and clouds using our Blending Brushes and Pacific Point Ink.
The is the inside of the card. The background and pattern paper on the envelope flap are from the retired Always Greenery Designer Series Paper.
Thanks again for stopping by and spending a bit of your time with me. I hope you enjoyed learning about how this card came together. Hopefully you were even inspired just a bit❤️
I love how you used the oceanfront stamp set! Very clever!
Thank you Pat. I’m glad you like it – I too liked the way it turned out.
Hi Rachel,
Love your card using Heron Habitat and Ocean Front! You mention stamping the heron twice, but I’m only seeing the die cut heron on the front. Where is the second stamp?
