Hello friends, it's time for another challenge here at The Male Room. I hope this challenge inspires you to dream or revisit any landscape that you like.
Hope you will join us in creating your masculine projects with any landscape you come up with. For my card, I was inspired by one of the photo cards sent to me when I purchased some Stampscapes.
rubber stamps. It reminded me of a place of retreat. These are my go to for nature scenes as I can mix and match depending on what I want to create. I decided to create a lakeside cabin scene. I stamped my cabin image using versatile onyx black ink on Stamping Up Glossy white cardstock.

Then, I stamped my foreground image (ledge), reeds. Used Potting Soil Archival ink for the background and foreground trees. Garden Patina Archival ink for the water ripple. To add color to the scene, I used a color box blending brush to add color to the sky (CP sweet sixteen dye ink, SU Baja breeze, SU bordering Blue, and SU night of Navy). For the water (LF merman dye ink, CP Mint to Be). For the ledge (CP Sweet sixteen, SU night of Navy, CP mint to be). I dried the ink on paper with a heat tool in between inking to prevent smearing as Im using glossy paper. For the sentiment, "Wishing you a beautiful day" is from Altenew Birch Land stamp set.
Please welcome the talented Cornelia, who is guest designing with us for this challenge. And hope you check out what the rest of the DT has come up with. Thank you for stopping by and hope you join us for this challenge.
