Tiki Time & Beach Buddies Cards with Rachel

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with two cards to share with you featuring some fun new stamp sets from the latest release!

My first project is a summer-themed 3D card that features the newly released Tiki Time Stamp Sets. When I first saw that cute little elephant with the luau skirt, I knew that I wanted to create a 3D scene where she could dance the night away lol. I also added a cute crab from the Best Fishes Stamp Set and a palm tree from the Seasonal Trees Stamp Set. All of my images were stamped onto a piece of Neenah White 110lb Card Stock, colored with Copic Markers, and die cut with their coordinating dies.

Copic Colors Used:
Elephant: W00, W1, W3, W5; Pinks: RV00, RV63, RV66, RV66; Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17, YG67; Tiki Hut: E31, E23, E25, E29; Tiki Roof: E50, E51, E53, E55; Fire: Y15, YR07, R27

I created the box portion of my card with a piece of Neenah Desert Storm 80lb Card Stock, a paper trimmer, scissors, scoring board, and adhesive. For my sandy hills, I trimmed some pieces of smooth white card stock and die cut the edges using the Slimline Nature Border Dies. I then blended these pieces with both Antique Linen and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide Inks and added a variety of brown dots for added texture with some Copic Markers. For my background sky, I blended some Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed, Tattered Rose, and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks.

The best thing about this card is that it can easily fold to fit into a standard A2 sized envelope for shipping! When folded, this card measures at 4.25" x 5.5".

For my second project, I made a collage-style card featuring the newly released Beach Buddies Stamp Set. I combined this set with the Comic Strip Speech Bubbles Die Set as well as the Slimline Nature Borders Dies for my beach slope as well as my waves. Once again, I stamped all of my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock, colored them with Copic Markers, and used their coordinating dies to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used: Pinks: RV02, RV04, RV 17, RV66; Oranges: YR02, YR04, YR09; Blues: B0000, B01, B04, B06; Browns: E31, E23, E25, E29; White: 0, C00, C1, C3; Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17

I used the same ink blending for the beach as I did above. For the waves, I die cut them from smooth white card stock and then blended them with both Salty Ocean and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Inks. Lastly, I adhered my images

with 3D Foam Adhesive Tape for added dimension.
