It's What if? Wednesday time at The House That Stamps Built and we're ready with a new sketch challenge for you.
Sketches have so many fun opportunities for creating beautiful cards and projects. I was thinking about this sketch while I was looking at some retro beach photos on Pinterest. I love those old postcards that show off having a fun summer some place far away from home and friends. I took the sketch and flipped it then went a tad retro.
I hope you can "see" the sketch in this card. I flipped it. I used RI #1404-S "Nubble Light (lg) for the image and after stamping it with Archival "Water Can Grey", I watercolored it using my Koi watercolors. I then coated it with VersaMark and covered it with clear embossing powder and heat set it. I repeated the process twice more and got this high gloss look. The sentiment is RI# 1145-G "Greetings From" . I used a Memory Box die for the seagulls and colored them with Copic Markers and placed them in the areas depicted on the sketch.
