Scrappy Boy Stamps: Sneak Peek! Summer with my Gnomies

It's sneak peek week for Scrappy Boy Stamps! Today I am showcasing the amazing and adorable Summer with my Gnomies stamp set that will be released on Saturday, June 5. This gnome stamp set has all the stamps to make a complete beach scene. It comes with two gnomes, a mushroom sand castle, a seagull, sea turtles, several sentiments, and more! There are coordinating outline dies too! This set is fabulous for many occasions by adding a sentiment of choice.

For this slimline card,  I stamped the images and colored them with Copic markers. I ended fussy cutting the images since the dies were not available yet. No worries, the dies will be available, along with the stamp set, on release day, Saturday, June 5, 2021. 

Copic markers used:

The beach, ocean, and sky background was inked with distress inks and oxide inks (you can use either type of ink) on white cardstock. I used the Beach Stencil Builder by Stamp Anniething to create the background. After inking the sand,  I used Copic markers to add some texture (colors listed above). I then cut this out using a wacky stitch slimline die. 

Distress Inks and Distress Oxides used:

Sand: Pumice Stone, Brushed Corduroy, Walnut Stain

Ocean: Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire

Sky: Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey

Next, I stamped the sentiment, trimmed it to size, and inked it with Oxide Ink in Squeezed Lemonade. I glued all the images down with liquid glue except for the two gnomes where I used adhesive foam squares to pop them up.

The stamp set and dies will be available for purchase beginning on Saturday, June 5 at the Scrappy Boy Stamps store. It's an amazing set to color and play with to create cards, scrapbook pages, art journals, and more! 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day!
