Seize the Birthday - Create a Sunset Scene

 Hello friends and happy Thursday.  It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Colleen has chosen the theme of Create a Sunset Scene.

 

 

I have had this stamp set The Waves of the Sea from Our Daily Bread (now Divinity Designs) for at least 10 years and thought it would make the perfect sunset scene after a day of fishing on the water. I stamped the image on a white panel in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then sponged Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Delight in the sky area using a mask for the sun.  I also added a little sun reflection in the water.  I colored the boat and the background with markers.  I also added a little white gel pen for the splash around the boat.  I die cut a frame with 2 Stitched Rectangle dies from Night of Navy, mounted it over the image panel and then to to a Crumb Cake card base.

Check out all the ways the team and our party guest were inspired by Colleen's sunset theme and join in the fun challenge over at Seize the Birthday.  
 
I will also link to the Time Out Challenge - down to earth (option to use kraft)
 
 

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
