Welcome to the Team Stamp It Group's Father's Day Blog Hop.
Whether you started the blog hop with my blog or "hopped" over to my blog from one of my teammates blog, I am happy you stopped by.
This card is such a versatile card. It works for a Father's Day card, a Thank You card, a Sympathy card and everything else in-between. It can be used for both a masculine or a feminine card.
I had so much fun making these watercolor cards using the High Tide stamp set. Instead of using watercolor paper I used Shimmery White paper, can I just say I am in love with the Shimmery White paper. It has just a little bit of a shimmer to it, so beautiful. The sand was first water-colored with Crumb Cake ink. Once the ink dried, I stamped the "sand" using the sand stamp from the High Tide stamp and Crumb Cake ink.
The ocean was water-colored using
Bermuda Bay ink. The sky was water-colored with Pacific Point ink. The birds were stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The grass was stamped in Old Olive ink. Once the background was complete, I adhered a coordinating color of cardstock to the card base. Then I adhered the background panel to the front of the card.

The lighthouse is a two step stamp and was stamped onto Shimmery White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink for the outline. Then stamp with the 2nd step stamp with Real Red ink to finish the lighthouse. The lighthouse was fussy cut out and adhered onto the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. It's interesting how the three cards look different just by changing the color of the panel behind the front panel.
The sentiment and anchor are from the Guy Greetings stamp set, which comes in wood mount, clear mount or photopolymer, and is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
