Tropical Love

Hello friends, It’s that time again, Whimsy Stamps mini release and not only are there more space invaders there is this gorgeous Hawaiian Floral Background Stamp. I just knew I was going to colour it using my pencil crayons. This was not the easiest job but I was extreamly happy with the outcome.

I created an A2 card by stamping the Hawaiian Floral Red Rubber Stamp on a light purple card stock with Wow embossing ink. Once the sticky ink was dry I began, what seemed like the endless task of colouring these beautiful flowers. Now don’t get me wrong I love my pencils, such a lovely medium, layer upon layer upon layer. In the end its always worth the time.

I coloured using my Caran d’ Ache Luminance and Derwent Lightfast pencils. The colours I used were Derwent Lightfast Blue Violet, White, Violet, Heather, Oyster, Grass Green and Spruce Green Caran d’Ache, Violet, Violet Magenta.

Once I completed colouring I cut my panel down a little smaller than my A2 card base and splattered it with with white gauche. I die cut love from the Bold ABC Die Set and you cant see it to clearly but the letters are dry embossed using the Slimline Embossed Folder Daisies. My new favorite, but that is another card! You is from the Hey Ostrich Stamp Set. I adhered everything to my card base and added some sequence for sparkle and I had a beautiful no line tropical floral card.
