I live in sunny Florida seven months a year, the optional tropical challenge fit right in with my coastal vibe! Since the majority of my tropical images are currently in Florida and I'm still in New York State, I was really digging into my limited stash. However, I couldn't resist ordering a cool diecut set from Catherine Pooler that is the foundation of my card. A very, very old flamingo wood mounted stamp became the focal point.
Rather than discard the diecut pieces within the sun, I individually glittered them! The background panel was smooshed with Distress Oxides. Flamingo and embellishments were stamped onto Strathmore watercolor paper (Versafine Onyx Black) and painted with Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolor paint. Sentiment (Stampendous) was stamped with Catherine Pooler ink. Mounting papers (A Muse Studio). Sequins and gems (A Muse Studio). Scrap seam binding was pushed behind the shells for added interest.
