Stampin' Up! Waterfront - for Coffee & Cards

Hello, this week for Coffee & Cards we will be using a stamp set called Waterfront. 

I was quite excited when I first saw this stamp set way back in November.  Unfortunately I have not had a chance to use it until now.  My Monday morning crafters choose this particular set last week and challenged me to use it!

These clever stamps allow you to create tranquil scenes, whether it is lakes lined with trees, tropical islands or snow covered forests.  This set is also ideal for trying out new colouring techniques too.

This week we will be stamping, die cutting and using a simple masking technique to create two stunning cards.  I will bring a selection of sentiments with me too so that you can decide what the card is used for - they would make great cards for men!

Here are the cards we will be making next week.

I made the card on the left first.  It was only whilst making the second card that I realised I had a lovely square of Tranquil Tide card (from the die cut) that would be perfect to add a pop of colour on the first card ...  I will bring some with me for you to use if you like.

If you would like to join me, you can find me at the following locations  next week:

Happy Mother's Day to all crafty ladies in the UK, hope you all have a lovely day.
