When my Sunday Stampers meet this month one of the bundles we will be using is the new Friend Like You. The Friend Like You Bundle includes the Friend Like You Photopolymer stamp set and the Friendly Silhouettes Dies. The 14 piece stamp set includes palm trees, dragonflies and reeds – you can create tranquil lakeside scenes. The Friendly Silhouette Dies include 4 dies, includes palm tree and some floral images.
Here is how I created this card which started with a piece of Watercolor Paper cut 4″ x 5.25″. Using my Aqua Painter and ink pads I added color to the water color paper. I like to tap a clear block into the ink pad and use that to add color to my Aqua Painter for painting on the paper. For the back ground I worked from the bottom up – Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue, Mango Melody, So Saffron & Petal Pink, once dry I went over with a Clear Wink of Stella pen for subtle sparkle. Next is the image I did cut using Basic Black card stock, adhered with liquid glue and cut off any excess on the sides. Dragonflies and greeting where stamped using Memento Black using the Stamparatus.
