Hat Trick

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 again with some more hatty ideas with my favourite Carmen's Veranda boys!!

Frank said he didn't have a hat so Charlie lent him one!  Not sure it suits him, but there we go.  I am also entirely responsible for the wiggle in the sentiment cos I decided the easiest way to convert it from square 8 lines to long 3 lines was to chop it up!  So I did!!  So it's a little wiggly in places, but perfection is overrated........

I used a slightly grungy off white Authentique card base.  I stamped the re-arranged sentiment and masked it off.  Then I stamped Charlie and Frank with brown archival ink, masked them and stamped Boris.  I edged the card with brown Promarker and also drew a line under the boys.  Then I used a caramel Promarker to fill in the background around them.  Finally I stamped Charlie's hat on a scrap of the same card using the brown archival ink, fussy cut and stuck it on Franks head.
