The challenge at Lost Coast designs is, Fruit, Flowers and Foliage.


Hi there, here is a tutorial for this slimline card.
I just love the pineapple stamp.
He's a whopping 6 inches/15 centimeters.
And so much fun to color.

What I used for this card.

Inktense pencils
Distress oxide,
Peacock Feathers.
Distress ink,
Wild Honey,
Iced Spruce,
Twisted Citron,
Peacock feathers.
Black waterproof inkpad.
Foamtape
Stencil with tropical leaves.
Yellow Posca marker.
Brayer.

Use the brayer to apply the four colours distressink,
Wild Honey,
Iced Spruce,
Twisted Citron,
Peacock feathers to the paper.

Take a stencil with tropical leaves and the Distress oxide Peacock feathers, 
we stencil the bottom half of the paper. 
And also the two top corners.

I also stenciled a line along the open areas with very small flowers.

While the leaves are drying we stamp the pineapple with black waterproof ink.
I colored the pineapple with Derwent inktense pencils, 
but you can also use other pencils or markers.

On a strip of leftover paper, stamp the text.
Sponge some small flowers.
Distress the edges with Distress Oxide peacock feathers.

Finish with a black background.
With the yellow Posca marker you make a yellow dot in the little flowers.
Now you can stick all the parts on the background with foam tape.
And glue a black background underneath.

That's it for this time.
I hope you enjoyed it.

Its a tropical theme for the challenge at Lost Coast designs.

Hi there, Riet here.
Today its my turn to post for the LCD challenge with a tropical theme.
I made a card with the pineapple and the Carmen dog from Carmens Veranda. 
The background is made with the crackle background stamp from LCD,
 and the text is a sheet of party words from Lost Coast Designs.
I colored it with Van Gogh watercolors. 
And stamped with stazon jet black.
I used Distressink Iced Spruce for the background.

I started stamping the dog.
I masked it, then stamped it with the pineapple.
I colored the pineapple and dog with watercolor paint. 

But you can use anything you want, pencils or markers wil be fine to.

When that was dry I masked the dog and pineapple again.
And with the distressink and the crackle background i stamped the background.
I used a small piece of the stamp for this and filled the background.
I shaded with a bit of black watercolor,
and i glued some little juwells on her ears and dress.

On a small piece of paper I stamped the text with stazon jet black.
 I marked the text with pink paint.
I also glued 2 small gems on it.
I increased the text with some 3d tape.
Glue the card with some pink and black cardstock and you're done.

Thanks for stopping by.
