A Tropical Hello

Hi everyone!

Today I have a fun tropical themed card to share with you that I created using those awesome

 Jaded Blossom stamps and dies!

I created my A2 cardbase from some white cardstock and then used the Card Mat dies to cut out some yellow summer themed paper to layer on top. Before I adhered my yellow piece to my card base though, I used the Stitched Oval Dies to cut a large oval from the center so that I could do a little inlay diecutting. I also used the same Stitched Oval to cut out some Light blue, Darker blue and kraft cardstock so that I would have the stitching detail going around the edge of my scene. I used the Tropical Dies to create my ocean waves and sandy shore and placed them inside my oval area. I created my palm tree by using the Tropical Dies 2 and added a few little doodles with my white gel pen. I stamped my sentiment from the Aloha stamp set with some versafine ink and popped it up onto my card front. I completed my card by adding a few Nuvo drops and using a seashell and crab sticker from my stash. 

I think it turned out so cute! My camera did not like that little shiny crab though lol!

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look at my latest creation!
I really appreciate it!
I hope you have a great crafty day!
