Summer Sketch Book

Hello Pink Ink Fans -- Sharon Harnist back with you today, with a fun Summer project! My youngest daughter has always loved drawing and has taken a renewed interest in it again lately. To help nurture her talent, I customized a sketch book for her using most all of Pink Ink's fabulous latest summer stamp release! I love all the beachy, summery images and hope these will help inspire my daughter over the summer!  And since this is a sketch book, I thought it would be appropriate to keep the images stamped in just black ink. I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink and was very pleased with how well the images stamped out on the leather cover!  Don’t you love all the amazing details in these images?!! On the inside cover page I stamped Beach Cabanas #2274L and colored it with Copic markers: Fun, aren't they?!!  I also tested out coloring Flowery Flip Flops #2272J on the back leather cover, and think it turned out pretty well! You just have to experiment with your color selection, when coloring onto a darker surface like this leather.  You could use kraft cardstock to practice, before committing to a cover like this.

Hello Friends! Debbie Seyer here today to share with you a fun card I created using the Flowery Flip Flops stamp. I don't know about you but as soon as it's semi warm enough, I have my flip flops on! So you can imagine how much I love this stamp! To begin, I stamped the Flowery Flip Flop onto white watercolor cardstock using versamark ink.  Then I dusted the images with white embossing powder and heat set them.  Then using a waterbrush and Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers, I did a color wash technique to create a bit of a rainbow effect.  Here is a closer look. As you can see, I embossed the Sandy Toes sentiment onto some sky blue cardstock and cut it out.  I think it's the perfect sentiment for this card! Here is another card I created using the Flowery Flip flop image. For this card, I stamped the Flowery Flip Flops image onto watercolor paper using Timber Brown Staz-on and watercolored it with Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers, too.  This time I used the Flip Flop Life sentiment!  Don't you just love it? Better get those flip flops out now, it's definitely warm enough!  Pink Ink Stamps used: 2272 Flowery Flip Flops 10134 Flip Flop Life 10135 Sandy Toes Thanks for stopping by today!

Hello! I hope you've enjoyed your weekend! It's been great here. The weather has been warm, but not too hot, just perfect!

I have a card to share with you today that I created with some of the new stamps from Pink Ink Stamp Company. Aside from Christmas and winter stamps, beachy, tropical stamps are my next favorites, and I just love this one from Pink Ink!

Oh isn't that gorgeous! I can hear the waves :) I stamped everything with Simon Says Stamp black ink, on Master's Touch watercolor paper from Hobby Lobby, and watercolored it with my Distress markers. I splattered a little bit of brown distress marker mixed with water along the bottom too. Pretty simple card to create, but you don't need to do a lot when you have an image this pretty!

All of the stamps I used are listed below!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful week!

Hugs,

Kay :)

Hello Pink Ink Fans! Debbie Seyer here today to share with you a wonderful new release stamp from Pink Ink. I really love this Beachtown Fence image. Recently I received some watercolor pencils and decided to try them.  First I stamped the image onto some watercolor paper using Timber Brown Stazon ink.  Then using my watercolor pencils, a fine tip paintbrush and some water,  I watercolored the image. After everything dried, I used a rectangle die to cut it out and layered it onto a slightly larger scalloped rectangle die cut.  I love how it turned out.  Here is a closer look. I added the Sandy Toes sentiment onto my card base to complete the project.
