2 Cute Gnomes

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!

Goodmorning, Cathy here with a postcard for you today.

Stamps Used:

Two gnomes

Brush stokes

Pieces of calligraphy

I started out by cutting a piece of white cardstock to 4x6. Then I stamped Two gnomes on the bottom.

Next, I randomly stamped Brush stokes and Pieces of calligraphy on the background. After that I grabbed a Tim Holtz stencil and some blue ink that was left on the blending brush and blended the background. 

I then colored the gnomes with copic markers and then layered it on black cardstock.

Cute and/or Fluffy: Cute Elephant

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 everyone! Liesbeth here with a lovely little elephant :-) for our Cute&Fluffy Challenge! I stamped it ( Small Baby Elephant) with black StazOn ink on a Distress inked background and masked it. Than I stamped the trees (ATC birds in trees) and texts (Pieces of Calligraphy and Party Words), also with yellow and green ink. I removed the mask and finished the piece with charcoal, white gel pen and colour pencils. Join us and have fun!

Sheepy Spring

Hello Nomad friends.  Gail here today with a spring card for our Cute and/or Fluffy challenge.  I've gone a bit more wooly than fluffy, but you gotta admit, she's a cutie.

I used Carmen's Veranda Sheep Doll and coloured her in spring greens.  The background stamp is Lost Coast Designs Daffodils Background.  I used a scallop die to cut my shaker aperture and also die cut some lovely green grass for her to stand on.

Cute and/or Fluffy: Another fluffy cat!

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!

Hi everyone, Liesbeth here some more fluffyness for our Cute/Fluffy Challenge! Hope you`ll join us! :-)

I stamped the cat from Up Close and Personal on a piece of inked/coloured paper and stamped Ironwork Border around the edges. I coloured it a bit with watercolour pencils and some water, and highlighted the eyes with a white gel pen. A simple quick card, the stamps make the effect!

Hugs, Liesbeth

Hello Portal Peeps!  Gail here today and I seem to be going big this month.  The current challenge is
Cute and/or Fluffy and what's more cute and fluffy than cats!!

I was feeling lazy so I fussy cut everything.  Nightmare for some, but I enjoy fussy cutting and everything here was pretty simple.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs Yourba Adire Background twice and Fourth Dimension Background once on blue paper and fussy cut.  Not much fussy LOL!  Straight lines go fast.  I cut the Fourth Dimension in half and stuck the four pieces down on an A4 page.  I stamped three Yoga Cats and the Anchor Fish with blue ink and fussy cut.  I stamped ATC Many Cats on an inky scrap and added a die cut frame.

Hope this makes you smile.
