Happy Weekend Crafty Friends! I'm thrilled you're joining me today. Stencils + a bit of ink are a fantastic way to build a dimensional-looking but flat background. The Ocean Scene Builder stencils from Honey Bee Stamps are incredible. Like these are my new favorite stencils, hands down! You can create awesome underwater scenes with just a little ink. So fun!
The background is what creates the magical scenery for these beautiful images. I blended Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks on Bristol Smooth cardstock for the background. The same three colors of Distress Oxide Ink plus Lawn Fawn Yeti White Pigment Ink were used through the stencils for different elements and to build the underwater ocean scene.
Greetings from the Mermaid Song Stamp Set were stamped along the top of the background with Simon Says Stamp Black Dye Ink.
Images from the Honey Bee Stamps Under The Sea Stamp Set were stamped on smooth white cardstock using Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink and colored in with Copic Markers. The images were die cut with the coordinating Honey Bee Stamps Under The Sea Dies and adhered to the scene as shown. Details were added with a white opaque pen, stardust glitter pen, and Glossy Accents.
