How wonderful are these Cape Cod houses and Village new stamps from Ai? I love them. One of these days, my husband Tad and I are supposed to go explore the upper Eastern coast. If you would like to make this card, stamp the house from the 5524 Cape Cod Houses Set inked in Memento London Fog ink. The fence is from the 5473 Seagull Set inked the same way, then colored with Tombow 992 and a little N45. Use a ruler and pencil to draw the water line. Use the pencil to draw in the sand line. Use the pencil to draw rocks on the chimney, shutters on the windows and lines on the roofs. Draw a flag pole and flag with the pencil then color the blue in with the 526 and 856 for the red stripes. Stamp the dots from the 5009 Mini Flower set inked in 856. The foliage is from the same set inked in 249. I drew little pots under the porch flowers using the pencil then colored them with N45. Use the grass from the 4051 Foliage Set 1 inked in 249 by the fence and around the bottom of the house. Use the dots and 856 and 569 to stamp flowers above the grass. Use 992 to color the sand and 569 to color the water. The sky is colored with 526. The birds are stamped from the 5473 Seagull Set inked in 569. Color the shutters, door and roofs with N45. Use a fine tip black pen to draw lines on the shutters. Use 992 to color the house. Use the blue TwinTone fine tip to color in the windows. Use 569 to add shadows under the eaves of the house and under the flowers and fence. Cut it out with the 5062 Rounded Corner Rectangle Dies.
