Pineapple Summer

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 with a hot and juicy summer make.  Gotta love some fresh pineapple when the summer temperatures are soaring.
I've made an Inchie Twinchie background using Lost Coast Designs Grunge Border 2" and Carmen's Veranda's Pineapple
I stamped Carmen's Veranda's Pineapple, the fruit with Dandelion archival ink and the leaves with Library Green archival ink.  I coloured the fruit with Mustard Seed distress ink and the leaves with Mowed Lawn distress ink.  Then I restamped the fruit with Potting Soil archival cos the whole no line thing was just too bland and there is nothing worse than a bland pineapple!!
I wanted a hot background so I stamped Lost Coast Designs Grunge Border 2" with red Carnation archival ink, coloured with Mustard Seed distress and chopped it into 1" and 2" squares.
I arranged my Inchies and Twinchie on a red base card in an ascetically pleasing manner.
Add the pineapple and it's Pina Colada time!!!
Join the Inchie Twinchie fun for a chance to win Lost Coast Dollars!!
