The lovely weather has had me thinking of the British seaside and the sand and beach huts as well as fish and chips by the sea. The beach huts and bright colours make me think of summer, so I will also be submitting this to the WOW embossing challenge for June which has the brief of "Summer".
Materials:
Card:
White Cardstock
Sandpaper
Stamps:
Chocolate Baroque: Seaside Dreams
Ink:
Versamark
Embossing Powders:
Primary Lagoon regular
Primary Apple Red regular
Primary Lemon regular
Paper strps:
JJ Quilling kit pack
Method:
1. Stamp the beach huts on to the white cardstock, using the blue embossing powder shake this over the first hut and then using the yellow shake this over the last beach hut (use different scrap paper to capture the excess so you don't contaminate your colours) and use the heat tool to cure
2. Stamp the huts again, this time using the red powder to cover the middle hut, and heat emboss using the tool.
3. Cut three pieces of sandpaper that measure 5.5cm by 6.5cm, cut out the beach huts and then adhere them to the sandpaper
4. Cut 3 piece of card stock measure 7cm x 6cm, dab versamark around the edges directly from the ink pad, add blue powder to one, red to the next and yellow to the last one. This creates the backgrounds. Use the heat tool to cure the powder.
5. Matt the sandpaper huts onto the embossed backgrounds
6. Lay a strip of quilling paper horizontally behind where the matted huts will sit and adhere to the card, placing the hut over it.
