Let me introduce "Whale Done".
This card I have done for the Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com. We are visiting Fine Art America for today's challenge. I picked this painting for my inspiration piece and you can easily see why.
For my card today I am using Penny Black's Whale Done. I first did the background using Color Burst in Ultramarine Blue on Fabriano Hot Press watercolour paper. I wanted the dots mostly for texture in my background.
I then stenciled the background with A Colorful Life Design Big Splash along with Evergreen Bough and Mermaid Lagoon distress oxide inks.
Once dry I die cut the piece using the Pinkfresh Ornate Banner die for the frame using Neenah cardstock. I attached the watercolour background to the card base, then added the frame using foam strips.
For the frame I brushed on the distress oxide inks first with the evergreen bough, then the mermaid lagoon.
To finish the card I stamped one of the whales and the sentiment on the front using VersaFine Clair ink in Blue Belle.
On the inside of the card I die cut just the centre piece and brushed on the mermaid lagoon, then stamped the second whale, with the sentiment that says "Ahoy There".
