I have made about a dozen of these scenes, but will blog them in small batches,as it will be a photo heavy post! Stampscapes Rubber stamps are exactly what they sound like- stamps that create scenes- landscapes/seascapes/skyscapes. This link goes to the makers US website- Kevin Nakagawa- and this next link goes to the UK supplier. Visit Kevins website for loads of picture inspiration, and he has a massive list of You Tube videos on all aspects of scenic stamping. The stamps blend together seamlessly, so masking isn't required, and they can be arranged and combined in an almost endless variety of scenes. For all my scenes, they were first stamped out in Black Dye ink, and the colour added later, using the Colorbox stylus tools and dye based inks. Adirondacks, Distress, Marvy and Memento were all used to colour them. You could also use sponges or daubers, even brushes to add your colour, I bought the Stylus tool & tips as that's what I'd watched Kevin using. Starting with the first picture, the top left card was stamped out using the following stamps: 144F, Cabin with Fence, 149F, Waterside Bluff, Right, 196F Pine Tree and 244E, Tree Cluster. The cabin was stamped first, then directly below it the Waterside Bluff, R. This also comes in an opposite image, Waterside Bluff Left. Following that, the Tall Pine on the left was added, then the 'Bushes' were stamped, using just the top portion of the Tree Cluster. Although I said there was no need for masking, by using a torn piece of paper towel as a 'mask', then stamping the Tree Cluster with just an upper portion of the image above the top edge of the paper towel, treetops can become bushes, or tall trees made shorter, and appear to be growing out of the grass. The colour is added in layers, starting with the lightest value of colour, then moving up to a mid tone, then finally your darkest tone. 3 colour values are often all that is needed.The water only used 2 blue shades, the sky, 3. Moving on to browns for the cabin and rocky edge of the Bluff line. Followed up with green tones for the grass, the added in some meadow flowers using gel pens. You could of course use coloured inks to stamp out your scene. The second scene, top right, picture 1, shows how you can combine different images. The stamps used here are: 359G, Snowy Creek, stamped out first. Although it's called Snowy Creek, it can just as easily become a creek surrounded by grass, simply by how it's coloured. Next comes 144F, Cabin with Fence again. It becomes a totally different scene to the first one, just by changing out one stamp. Next addition is 251C, Sedge Filler, which is stamped out on both banks, to turn it into a grassy meadow, rather than a snowy scene. There are a number of grass 'filler' stamps in the range, and really help to bring a scene to life. Next the addition of some trees, again using 244E, Tree Cluster, and added in exactly the same way as for the first scene. Now the colour addition starts, and it is good to have some light- the white of the page- left in the sky, for a light source, and reflecting this on the ground/water in your scene. Again, 3 values of blue were used in the sky and water. Then onto green for the grassy areas. A very pale green to start with, followed by a yellow green. Then a slightly darker green was brought in, and then a quite dark one, all the time leaving some areas in the lighter shades, so that your scene has some depth. Finally some meadow flowers added again with gel pens, then a final bit of stamping, right at the front,068D, Reeds Large. OK, final scene in this post. The longer scene uses a stamp called 049G, Lakeside Cove lge. The image actually looks like this: but I made it look the way it does by using a slightly longer piece of card,and not centring the image, but stamping them side by side. The 'Northern Lights' were created by streaking in some light green and purple/pink in the sky, then building up some blue layers on top. That was also reflected in the water. Brown added to the rocks, and stars created with white gel pen. All the images were done on glossy cardstock, but matte coated works just as well. When the scenes were dry, they were sprayed with Artist Fixative, which helps to bring back the colour, as it does fade a little on drying. All these scenes are now posted on my Stampscapes Gallery page, and all the stamps used in each image are listed next to the photo.

Sorry for the delay on my Cheery Lynn Designs post today, Mother Nature wreaked havoc on my internet service last night. I love snow but I am ready for Spring. So with that in mind, I created this fun butterfly card. I began with a piece of blue card stock 5.5 inches square adding a a white panel and then another blue panel and finally a white panel to which I added texture using my Large Rectangle Stitcher Plate. I added another blue panel and then a white panel embossed with my Flutter By's embossing plate. To this panel I added two Butterfly In die cuts to create a frame. Now came the fun part, assembling my flower and medallion for the center. Starting at the bottom, I layered, Sophie's Heart Mini in blue and French Pastry Tiny in white. Next came the flower portion which was created with Daisy Strip, Darling Daisies in blue and finished with some spikes from Embellishments #1 in white. I used my embossing tool and embossed a line down the center of each petal and then pinched them up for some dimension. The final steps were the addition of two butterflies from the Small Exotic Butterflies #1 in blue and some Viva Decor Pearl Pen accents. Be sure to visit the Cheery Lynn Designs challenge blog for more inspiration and to join in on this week's Die Cut Flower challenge for a chance to win $20 to the store.
