Tropical Scenes Cards with Lynn and Ashley

Hello there! It’s Lynn here and today I’m sharing an ocean themed birthday card I created featuring the fun new Tropical Scenes stamp set and coordinating dies.

To create my card I started out by stamping the ocean floor image from the Tropical Scenes stamp set and die cutting it using the coordinating dies. Even though this awesome image fits the length of a standard size card, I used just a portion of it for along the bottom of my die cut square of wave Summer Splash patterned paper. 

To go along with my ocean floor scene, I used the adorable Sea You Soon stamp set and coordinating dies. I colored all of my images using Copic markers and popped up the octopus and fish using foam tape. I decided create my own sentiment using the Kinsley Alphabet stamp set and the Banner Basics stamp set and coordinating dies and for my background I used another piece of Summer Splash patterned paper and die cut it using the Frilly Frames Retro Petals dies.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a slimline ocean scene featuring several Sunny Studio products, including the new Tropical Scenes set! I just love how so many different Sunny Studio products can be combined on one card. Perfect when I can't decide what to include - I can make a slimline and use everything!

I started with a white slimline panel cut to 8.5" x 3.5". I used my blending brushes to blend Pinkfresh Studio Summer Shower and Lawn Fawn Merman inks for the sky and water. I then sprayed the background with fine drops of InkOn3 Pixie Dust and white acrylic paint. It's hard to see in photos, but this card has beautiful shimmer! I die cut a few clouds from white cardstock using Fluffy Clouds Border dies and added them to the top of the card.

I stamped all my images from several sets in Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink and colored with Copics before cutting everything out with the matching dies. I used:

 - Tropical Scenes for the island, one palm tree, and the coral reef

 - Sea You Soon for the octopus

 - Best Fishes for the shark, clownfish, and extra seaweed and anemone

 - Fabulous Flamingos for the flamingo

 - Silly Sloths for the flower

 - Sending Sunshine for the second palm tree

I also did a bit of ink blending with Hero Arts Soft Sand ink on the bottom of the reef image for a soft color transition into the Copic coloring.

I arranged all my images on my card, popping the animals up with foam squares for dimension. I took the sentiment from Sea You Soon and stamped the last two words in Jet Black onto the card. I wanted to emphasize the "sea" so I cut each letter from black cardstock three times using Loopy Letters and stacked them for a dimensional word. I finished with a scattering of aquamarine jewels for extra sparkle.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
