AI Watercolor Weekend | New Art Impressions Stamps | Winter Truck

Winter Truck

The watercolor weekend design team is so excited to help Art Impressions roll out 6 new AI watercolor sets.  I absolutely LOVE ALL OF THEM!!!  I will be doing lots of posts featuring these new sets.  This weekend I am debuting this Winter Truck.  The stamp set is the WC Truck Mini set and it includes the truck, barn and a fence (not used).  I also used the new WC Tree Set.

Winter Truck Card Details:

Step 1 – The Truck

I inked the truck from the WC Truck Mini set using Sepia onto Canson watercolor paper.  Using my watercolor palette, I added Prussian Blue to the truck and Sepia to the tires.

Winter TruckStep 2 – The Snow:

I added African Violet to my palette and using my paintbrush I painted in the snow in the back and underneath the truck.

Step 3 – The Barn:

I wanted the Barn to recede into the background so the truck could take center stage.  I inked it up with African Violet and stamped it off twice.  Using the African Violet, I added some snow beneath the Barn.

Step 4 – The Trees:

I softened the lines and added a light wash of Sepia from the palette.  I cut a mask and inked up the very top of one of the pine trees from the new WC Tree Set 1.  I stamped it off several times and then stamped it multiple times next to and behind the Barn and along the snow bank.  I used water to really softened them to create an illusion of distance.

Step 5 – Finishing Touches:

I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the snow around the truck.  I cut the piece down to 4 x 5.25 and placed it onto a piece of Gina K Designs Turquoise Sea card stock cut to 4.125 x 5.375.  Then I placed the entire panel to a top folding card base made from Neenah Solar White cut to 4.25 x 11.
