A bit of a break from the Christmas cards tonight. Instead I have a card made for my uncle, who has done a bit of travelling lately.
I recently purchased the World Map stamp set, and this was my first play with it. I stamped it on watercolour paper with Stazon ink and then watercoloured it. I coloured the oceans in Marina Mist, trying to make it darker around the edges than the middle of the ocean.
For the land areas I coloured the whole thing first with Summer Starfruit and then coloured around the edges and anywhere else I thought should be green with Wild Wasabi. I was going for an atlas looking map and I think I got pretty close!
I finished off the inside with the compass stamp from The Open Sea, a great companion set to the World Map!
Have a great week,
Bye for now,
Tina
That is beautiful. Love your map colouring. I so need to break this stamp out after Christmas.
