Mediterranean Moments 2

The other day I showed you a hand-coloured card I made featuring the street scene from Mediterranean Moments.  Today I’m back with a second card using the same scene.  You might be wondering why I sometimes feature a series of cards using the same stamp set…simply because I have it out I do multiple projects with it!  Sometime one attempt will spark an idea for another, or I think of a twist or tweak to what I’m doing.  I like to show  you them in a cluster so that you can see the versatility of our sets.

Like I said, same street scene, this time coloured with our Stampin’ Blendabilities, a range of alcohol markers that make shading  and blending so easy.  I again mounted the image on an Old Olive mat, but this time paired it with a sentiment from Vertical Greetings on a Crumb Cake Note Card.

Sharp-eyed readers will note that on the previous card coloured with Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen I stamped the image in StazOn Jet Black Ink.  On this card, I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.  Do you know why? StazOn is a solvent-based ink, so it is colourfast when using a water-based colouring medium.  Memento ink is water-based, and so it doesn’t smudge when using alcohol ink markers.  Opposites attract!

Here are the products I used to make this card.  Click on any image below to go to my Online Store and order.
