Step 1 of 11

Ink up Imala Waterside with the Surfboard. Spritz with water and stamp on to the white card (7 x 5"). Spritz the stamped image with water, allowing the ink to move/bleed, before mopping up the excess, with a paper towel. DO NOT MOVE YOUR STAMP OR CARD but blast it quickly with your heat tool. 

Step 2 of 11

Reink the stamp with Surfboard and stamp back over your "loose" image, thus redefining details within the image. Blast the ink with your heat tool. 

Trim your card down to the size of the stamped image (6 3/4 x 4 1/4").  

Step 3 of 11

Apply a little of the Magenta to your craft mat, add water and loosely paint the sky. You can dab areas of the wet paint with a paper towel, to give the effect of wispy clouds. 

Step 4 of 11

Splatter drops of water in the sky, wait a few seconds, then mop up the excess water and give your artwork a quick blast with your heat tool. 

Step 5 of 11

Using the diluted Magenta ink, paint hints of the pink sky, reflected in the water. 

Allow your artwork to completely dry or blast with heat tool, to speed it up. 

Step 6 of 11

Adhere your artwork on to the black card (7 x 4 1/2"). 

Step 7 of 11

Adhere the vellum panel on the front of your card blank, keeping any glue applied towards the centre of the vellum. 

Step 8 of 11

Adhere your artwork on to your card and set to one side. 

Step 9 of 11

Ink up the sentiment, from Imala Heart Art, with the Onyx Black Versafine and stamp on to white card.

Trim to size, then adhere on to black card and trim that to size. 

Step 10 of 11

Tear a piece of vellum slightly bigger than your layered sentiment and adhere your sentiment on to this. 

Step 11 of 11

Adhere your sentiment in the top right corner, to finish. 

You made it!
