Tropical Paradise and a turtle that serves drinks ;o)

Hello everyone!
I am back with my new card for the Papercraft Challenges blog. This time the theme is "Tropical Paradise" and this always makes me think of palm trees, the sea and a beach. So this is what I came up with:


I used some slimline stackable dies by Lawn Fawn to create the background scene and the white border around it. For the sand and the water I used distress inks on a white piece of paper, because I wanted the gap between the two to be reminiscent of sea spray.
The stamps are from the beautiful set "Polynesian Paradise" by My Favourite Things. (I hadn't realized that they have gone out of business though. That is such a shame and derailed me a few hours from publishing this post, because I tried to find out what happened.)



All the images were coloured with Copic markers and I used another, slightly larger, slimline die to create the white strips at the sides. 



I hope you will join us this month with a "tropical" card or project and publish your creation to our gallery. Have a wonderful day everyone and happy crafting ;o)

Summer Vibes Card and a huge sorry

Gosh, I have just noticed, that none of my posts have been published since December! I am so sorry! Having said this I would love to share my June card with you, because I really like it. So here it is:


For the background I used a kraft cardstock and added white ink and Distress Oxide Inks in different shades of blue. I also used a white gel pen and a brown marker for the splatter and I think that makes a big difference.


For my images I used stamps from Purple Onion Designs which I really love. They sometimes are a little more time consuming to colour but I think it is always worth the extra effort.


I hope you had joined our challenge over at Papercraft Challenges, but if not I hope you have still enjoyed my summer card ;o) have a fabulous day everyone and happy crafting!!!
