Welcome to the first day of projects celebrating this month's Paper Sweeties release I Love Summer. My inspiration for this card comes from the view I see every evening of the setting sun here in Florida. When I saw this sentiment in the new set I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my card-create a sunset. I cut a white cardstock panel and taped off a section to do my sunset inking. I used Distress Inks in Scattered Straw, Fossilized Amber and Carved Pumpkin. To make the little island for my palm trees I used a circle stencil and Black Soot ink. To get my palm trees I did a little "mirror" stamping. You stamp your image on the backside of another solid stamp and then stamp this image onto your paper, making it face the opposite direction. I removed my masking tape and added a piece of narrow washi at the top and the sentiment underneath then mounted the panel on an A2 black cardstock base. There's a list below of our other Designers so you can check out their Sneak Peek projects. Come back tomorrow as we celebrate Release Day with another project.
