Isle Esme!

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!!

I think we should travel today, shall we? How about to that remote, delightful island that us Twilight fanatics know as Isle Esme!!

I LOVE when Edward tells Bella that their honeymoon destination is Isle Esme, an island that Carlisle bought as a gift for Esme!

"Who gives an island as a gift? I frowned. I hadn't realized that Edward's extreme generosity was a learned behavior" - Bella

How PERFECT is this stamp to represent Isle Esme! LOVE it!!! I started by stamping my image, which is from Life's A Beach from There She Goes, in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow White Cardstock. I then stamped it on a post it note, cut it out and created a mask. Once I had my mask over my image, I used my brayer to create the sunset sky and the water!!

I used two different Kaleidacolor inks for this! For the sky I used Desert Heat, and for the ocean, Blue Breeze!! After I brayered on my colors, I lifed off my mask and colored my image with Copic Markers.

I framed my image with Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities, and added some piercing. My layout is from the Get Sketchy Blog, and this one is GS14!

The patterned paper on my card is from Razzleberry Lemonade by SU! and I used Bermuda Bay and Melon Mambo cardstock. I finished it off with some ribbon and brads from my stash!!

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
