Oriental Dream – Tutorial #302

dsc02662.JPG

I love to work with Silhouette stamps and this Stampin’ Up! set, Dream Gardens, item number 114395 is beautiful and fun to work with.

Today’s tutorial gives a little lesson on putting mountains in a scene.

dsc02670.JPG     First I have a question, I know there are a lot of dog lovers out there.  Anyone know what I can do to relieve my poor big baby, Lucas of anxiety attacks?  This tends to happen when I leave town and then he starts to tear up rugs.  My husband stays home with him, but he apparently misses me.  I’m not a fan of drugs.  Any suggestions?  Just thought I would ask.

Now let’s get started on that tutorial. . . .

Supplies:

Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Dream Gardens
Paper: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Apricot Appeal, Not Quite Navy, Going Gray and Basic Black
Ink: Stampin’ Up! Going Gray, Basic Black, Not Quite Navy, Pumpkin Pie and Apricot Appeal
Accessories: Stampin’ Up! Distress Texture Plate, Not Quite Navy Brads, Apricot Appeal Ribbon, Scallop Edge Punch, Big Shot Machine, Sponges, Brayer

Sponged a bit of Not Quite Navy, right at the point of the mountain.

Removed the post it note and stamped the Stamp from the Dream Gardens set using Basic Black ink.

Decided to put another mountain in the scene.  Repeated the steps above.

Stamped the sentiment “Dream” using Basic Black ink.

Sponged Basic Black ink around the edges and at the bottom of the card stock.

Smeared Going Gray ink on “Distressed” texture plate and ran a Going Gray Card stock panel through the Big Shot machine with it.  This creates a colored texture.  Be sure to clean up your texture plate after doing this.  🙂

Assembled the card and added Apricot Appeal Ribbon and Not Quite Navy Brads.
