Los Tres Caballeros!

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!

Good morning and a very happy Friday! It's Sue here and I'm back with another project for our 31 Days of Halloween event. This time I'm sharing Los Tres Caballeros!



I started by inking up my background, then stamping Gargoyle and Gryphon and embossing in white. I also added some text from the Leonardo Accessories set. I added some colour with ink, but left the text in white.
Next, I stamped and coloured Taurus, and the words from Tres Caballeros.

These are my lovely stamps. I quite often chop my stamps up, which is why the words are separate from the images. Don't worry, if you want  Tres Caballeros it will come complete with the three men lol. I've used

I hope you've already joined in with our fun challenge, but if not, there's still plenty of time. Just link up via the linky or through our Facebook group.



Have a very happy day whatever you are doing, and thanks so much for looking x

31 Days of Halloween: Gryphon

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! Our 31 Days Of Halloween is sooo much fun! I really love it, and all that wonderful LCD/CV Halloween stamps! Enjoy this special Halloween month we do every year!


I stamped the Lily Flourish a few times with Distress Oxide Black Soot and sprayed with water to let the ink flow, I let it dry well. Wonderful effect!  I stamped the text (Pieces of Calligraphy) and the Gryphon with black StazOn and coloured it with pencils and gel pens.


See you next time!  LiesbethXX

On Top Of The World

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!

 Good morning and a very happy Saturday. It's Sue here, and today I'm sharing my second project for our 'Things With Wings' challenge. 


I started by stamping on black card and embossing with white embossing powder.


Then I dabbed different colours of Stazon over the top and wiped off any excess with an old towel.
Isn't this a beautiful stamp? She's been coloured with watercolour pens and then cut out.

And now she's on top of the world!


These are my fabulous stamps. I've used




I hope you like it, and that you join in with our challenge. Remember there is a chance to win some Lost Coast $ for our lucky winner!
Take care and have a very happy day whatever you are doing x

Unsupervised

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!

Cathy here with a tag for you today.
Stamps Used:

I started off with a #8 white tag. I used blue distress ink in many shades to make the background. I did the smooching technique to make the background. 
Next I stamped the Gryphon and the Saying in black ink. Added some white gel pen for highlights and blue fabric to the top and there is your tag.


Come join the fun new challenge here.
