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.

Carmens Veranda Pineapple 

LCD Misc words.

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.

Did you also make something with fruit, flowers or/and foliage?

Color the roses.

Paint the pearlescent on the rose petals, but not the entire petal.

Do the same with the Frida collage stamp.

It's a shame that you cant see the shine on the photo, 

because it is very pretty in real life.

I would love it if you would show your fruit, flowers or foliage makes.

You can do that if you join the challenge of Lost Coast Designs.

As long as you stamp on your project.

You also have a chance to win new rubber stamps.

A flower pinwheel for the DT post at Lost Coast designs/Carmens Veranda stamps

Hello, today I made a pinwheel on the We R Makers pinwheel punch board. 

Its for the "Fruit, Flowers and Foliage" challenge at Lost Coast Designs.

I used:

LCD Doodle flowers.

LCD Crackle background.

Versafine onyx black.

White gellypen.

Derwent colorsoft pencils.

I made a 7 inch pinwheel.

With a pinwheel you have 4 surfaces to stamp.

With the help of a stamp platform and some cover paper you can stamp each sheet separately.

The other side of the pinwheel can be stamped in one go.

Use the crackle background for this.

Color the flowers as you like.

Give the flowers some accents with the white gellypen.

Put the pinwheel on a stick and start spinning. Isn't that fun?

Come and join us at the "Fruit, Flowers and Foliage" challenge at Lost Coast Designs.

There are free stamps to win, and you can join with all stamp brands.
