Kindred Stamps July Release – Pixie Dust

Thanks for stopping by my blog! It’s the last day of the Kindred Stamps July 2020 Release Week sneak peeks! Check out my sneak peek from earlier this week here. Today, I am sharing my projects featuring the Pixie Dust stamp set and the Pixie Map stamp set. These stamp sets will be available on Friday, July 24th at 8 AM PST. These sets inspired so many projects for me! I made one project with both of these stamp sets and four other projects with just the Pixie Dust stamp set. I colored all characters and images with Copic Sketch markers. The colors I used are listed at the end of this blog post. 

My first project features the Pixie Map stamp set. This card was simple to make, but in the end, it turned into a beautiful scene. I used Distress Oxide inks to create the sky and sea backgrounds. I used a smooth layer of coverage with the Mermaid Lagoon ink to create the sea. For the sky, I used the MFT Cloud stencil and the Tumbled Glass ink. I adhered the boy, map, and stitched sentiment flag with foam tape. I also added sequins for embellishment. Finally, to finish the card I matted the scene with mint green and white cardstock. 

My second project is a scenic slimline card. I used the same sea and sky backgrounds as the first card.

With this card, I used wave dies to create moving water. I tucked the crocodile into the waves so it looks like he is popping out of the water. I used an island stamp to create a shoreline for the pirate to stand on. I put the boy on a wobbler in the sky so he can float in the air and taunt the pirate. Finally, I stamped the “Don’t Grow Up (It’s A Trap!)” sentiment on an stitched oval and attached it to the card.
