Hello, crafty friends.
This is Shannon Lee Smith with cardsbyshannonlee.com.
Today I have a card I’ve created with products from Kat
Scrappiness for the Aloha Friday Challenge Design Team.
I started by die-cutting the palm tree layers, island, and
coconuts from white cardstock. I color
those elements with Copic markers.
Next, I use the Teal Glitter 6x6 paper pad and die cut the
water with the Stitched Waves dies. I
had to cut two sections because the paper comes in a 6x6 inch pad, but I made a
slimline card. I glued the sections side
by side and covered the seam with the palm tree so it would not be noticeable.
Then I cut a slimline card panel and die ink blending of a
sunset using dye inks by Lawn Fawn. I
used the following colors: Peachy Keen, Peach Fuzz, Apricot, and Butter to
create the beautiful orange/coral sunset.
Finally, I die-cut two of the Stitched Dolphins and used a
blending brush to add Hippo dye ink from Lawn Fawn. I made the edges of the dolphins darker than
the center to create some interest.
I added a foiled sentiment I had on hand and included some
Cantaloupe Pearls to finish this Tropical Island Getaway card.
I just love all the stitched detail on the die-cut waves and
dolphins. It really makes them stand
out.
