Serendipity

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Hello Portal Peeps!!  Gail here today and I decided to make some Artist Trading Coins for the current ATC Challenge that is running for the first two weeks of March, here at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity.   Have you made ATCoins??  They were a new thing last year and became very trendy.  I love em!  2.5 inch circles of fun!!  Big enough to add lots of details, small enough to be a quick idea.  I like to make them as a trio so here we are with Swimsuit Girl in vintage style.

I stamped Swimsuit Girl on various paper scraps using Potting Soil archival ink and fussy cut
I cut my coins using a 2.5inch die from another scrap of patterned paper.  I thought the girls looked quite good just like that, but decided to stamp the background a bit as well.
 I used the long clear Serendipity sentiment from Carmen's Veranda, stamping it across the three coins using the same Potting Soil ink.  Then I stamped sections of Lost Coast Designs Grunge 3" Border above and below the main word.
 Edged with the same ink and added the Beach Babes and done!!
