The Stampscapes® 101: 9-Step, Lesson IX, Frames 1-9
Cabin & Mountain

Cabin w/Fence 144F was stamped in Marvy Uchida's #18 "Dark Brown".

Cloud (Cumulus) 018E was stamped twice in Marvy Uchida's #6 "Brown". The Cabin was masked off to prevent the cloud image in the structure. Masking of the trees is unnecessary.

Tall Peak 182G was stamped in #6 "Brown". The clouds were masked off.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #16 "Pale Orange". This is a good color to start out with being that it is so light. With this first color I've set the foundation for what my lighting scheme will end up being. I wanted some light to fall on the mountain, clouds and cabin roof so I've left those areas largely untouched with the pale orange.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #57 "Rose Pink". This follow up color to the pale orange is slightly darker in value.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #6 "Brown". Here we're starting to move into the middle to dark tones and the lighting scheme is much more apparent.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #18 "Dark Brown" and the Grass Texture 208D was stamped in the foreground in the same color.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #60 "Salvia Blue" on the light areas of the scene. Slight, almost dry, applications of salvia blue were applied to the light areas to add a subtle addition of cool tones. Lady on Horse 168A, Oak Branch 203G and Reeds 067B were added with a Memories "Black" stamp pad.

The Tonal Applicator 084E was used in Marvy Uchida's #18 "Dark Brown" again. After the card dried a little I was able to get the card darker with another application of the same color. Sometimes when you're stamping wet into wet (card being wet from so much ink on it), the card won't take any additional hue until it dries out.

A Pentel Milky Gel Roller in the colors of White, Light Blue, and Pink were used to add highlights in the sky, mountain, cabin rooftop, and grassy area.

To make things a little softer in areas and to add the foggy element a Color Box pigment pad was used with a Q-Tip application to the clouds, meadow and sky. I just dab the Q-Tip in the white ink and with that same "dabbing" movement I build up the ink on to the areas of the card where I want that look.
