Hi fellow bloggers, today Cheery Lynn Designs launch
their exciting new October release of dies which is an eclectic mix of Travel
designs, words, memory books and lacey frames. Please check out what my fellow
Teamies have been up to with the new dies HERE and you can view the full range
HERE.
For my card I decided to use a bright floral paper and
colours to compliment these fun travel dies. My Aloha Hawaii was layered 3
times for a 3D shadow effect layering my flower in the centre.
My palm tree was shaded with Copics, off-setting another
layer of branches behind the top layer for a 3D look.
Before I die cut my Monkey I crumpled a square of Kraft
cardstock, next I unraveled the Cardstock and added ink over it and sprayed with
a little water, re crumpling and drying with my heat-gun. This gave my paper
great texture to look like the Monkeys fur. I added in my letters and eyes
which had been colours with Copics.
I will be back on Saturday showcasing some more of the
new dies from this release.

Ha, this is truly very different, but so much fun! What a super kids card this would make!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool card meant to be viewed whilst sipping a refreshing mojito on the beach. Hawaii is such a fun place to visit! Love the way you have distressed the monkey! Awesome sauce and CL dies are my top fave! Hugz. ~Niki
ReplyDeleteYour texture work on the monkey is very clever Julie. Great card - any chance Cheery Lynn might like to send you to Hawaii? Purely for inspiration of course! Nicola x
