Stampin’ Up! Happy Home for Sunday Stamps

I used the Stampin Up! Happy Home stamp set to create my card for the Sunday Stamps sketch challenge this week.

Happy Home - Stamp With Amy K

Here is the sketch for Sunday Stamps SSC126.

Screen Shot 2016-03-22 at 10.44.59 PM

I started by stamping the images and sentiment from the Happy Home stamp set (retiring) in Basic Black Archival ink on a panel of watercolor paper.  I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to help me with placement of the images.

Happy Home 1 - Stamp With Amy K

I used my Aqua Painter along with Wild Wasabi, Soft Sky, So Saffron, Real Red, Soft Suede and Pacific Point inks to watercolor the stamped images and I let the panel dry completely.

Happy Home 3 - Stamp With Amy K

Since the grass line in the image with the bench didn’t reach all the way across the panel, I used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to draw in the rest of the line.  Using a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to fill in little spots on a stamped image works great!  Just remember to watercolor first, let it dry, then fill in with the marker.

Happy Home 2 - Stamp With Amy K

I adhered the watercolor panel to a panel of Basic Black card stock with Fast Fuse Adhesive, then to a Wild Wasabi card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a single Wild Wasabi Candy Dot from the Subltes Candy Dots pack (retiring) next to the sentiment to finish the card front.

Happy Home 4 - Stamp With Amy K

I stamped the image from the Happy Home stamp set in Wild Wasabi ink on a panel if Whisper White card stock inside the card.
