  • Early
    Espresso: 2-3/4” x 4-1/4”
  • Shimmery
    White: 2-1/2” x 4”, plus scrap for sign
Instructions:

  1. Fold
    the Shaded Spruce base card in half. Ink up the Birch background
    stamp with Shaded Spruce ink & place rubber side up on table.
    Lay base card onto stamp, press gently & remove.
  2. Using
    the Black Stazon Ink, stamp the cabin and trees onto the larger
    piece of Shimmery White cardstock; stamp the sign on the scrap of
    Shimmery White using same ink.
  3. Carefully
    press your Acrylic Block (using all the corners/edges) into each of
    the Classic Stampin’ Pads so that you have all 7 colors – you
    won’t need much.
  4. Using
    your damp Aqua Painter, color in the images as desired,
    cleaning brush tip between each color change. If you get too much
    water on your brush, simply use a paper towel to blot up any excess
    water from your paper.

  5. For
    this card, the trees & “grass” were done in Shaded Spruce,
    the sky was in Pool Party, the cabin was done in Crumb Cake, Soft
    Suede, Cajun Craze & Crushed Curry; the fireplace was done in
    Cajun Craze & Crumb Cake.
  6. Color
    in Sign using Soft Suede ink & your Aqua Painter; fussy cut out.
  7. Layer
    the Shimmery White cardstock onto the Early Espresso mat and adhere
    to base card using Dimensionals. Adhere sign onto card, just above
    cabin, using Dimensionals to finish.
