Tropical Christmas Card by Saedi

Posted by Saedi Oldham on

    Hey cute cardmakers!

    I have a tutorial for a “Tropical Christmas” card. This card was so fun to make and actually went pretty fast!

    Instructions:

    1.I started by cutting a rectangle for my card base.

    2. Next I used 3 Distress Oxides to create that fun background. I started with squeezed lemonade and made a circle in the center of my card base, then I surrounded it with worn lipstick in a larger circle and finished the edges with peacock feathers.

    3. Next, I stamped the tree, fishes and 4 of the jellyfish from lawn fawn’s “Christmas Fishes” stamp set.

    4. Then I colored all my images with my Copic markers. I wanted the colors to coordinate with the inked background, and when I finished coloring them, I added faces to the jellyfish and added white details using a Signo Uni Ball white gel pen.

    Hopefully you get the chance to play with this stamp set, it’s one of my all time favorites!!!
