Watercolour Ocean Scene

Hello, and happy Saturday, DT Annalisa is back again today! I wish I could be out on a boat in the ocean right now. Today, I’m excited to share my project featuring the new Boat Buddies stamp set from Time For Tea Designs.

To create the front panel of the card, I used an Evergreen Bough Distress Watercolour Pencil. I soaked the pencil in water, then scribbled it on acetate, pressing it onto watercolour paper to transfer the colour. Once the panel dried, I die-cut it using the Simple Square Nesting Dies and Stitched Circle Dies.

For the background panel, I utilized Squeezed Lemonade and Saltwater Taffy Distress Watercolour Pencils. I adhered this panel to a square card base with liquid glue. 

I stamped several images from the Boat Buddies stamp set, coloured them with Copics, and cut them out using the coordinating dies. I added accents with a white gel pen from a Gelly Roll Pen. The compass and birds were from the Adventure Awaits stamp set.

Next, I die-cut vellum with the Ocean Waves Dies and colored it with a blue Copic marker. I used liquid glue to attach it to the back of the blue-green watercolour panel.

I stuck the boat to the card base using liquid glue and stamped the sentiment and birds above it. I then used double-sided foam tape to adhere the blue-green panel to the card base.

Finally, I used liquid glue to attach the remaining stamped images in the four corners of the card base.
