I began by stamping out the monkey, palm tree, island, and flip flops. I colored all the images using Copic markers and cut them out using the Island Getaway coordinating dies. I added white polka dots to the bikini and flip flops using a white gel pen. Next, I cut a small stitched rectangle out of some wavy patterned paper. I adhered the island, monkey, and palm tree to the rectangle creating a little island scene. The palm tree and island hung off slightly, creating some visual interest.
I also cut an A2 size rectangle out of teal cardstock for my card base. I adhered the small rectangle with the island scene onto the center of the card base using foam tape. Then I adhered one flip flop to the right corner of the small rectangle and the other flip flop to the right corner of the card base. I stamped my sentiment in black ink on the bottom of my card base. As a finishing touch, I added some white dots around the corners of the small rectangle and some glitter pen to the bikini and flip flops. I just love how cute the little monkey looks on her own private island! Ha ha!
That's it for me today! I hope you enjoyed my card. Check back to the blog for more inspiration using the adorable Island Getaway stamp set. I can't wait to see what you guys come up with!
Lindsey - What an incredibly adorable and super fun card!! I want to park my flipflops on the beach - that would be awesome!! But I know that I would not look as cute as this monkey in that darling purple polka dotted bikini!! Such a great card with awesome coloring and perfect details!!
