Basket of Eggs

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 little inspiration for the current I Am Woman challenge.  Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda have so many lovely ladies.  Grab your stamps and join us.  We need at least 20 entries to award the prize, and I do so love giving away Linda's stamps LOL.  

I've gone for a clean and simple design today, but I had great fun colouring Lost Coast Designs Harvest Angel.  Since Easter is approaching I coloured her in bright spring colours and gave her a basket of pastel colour eggs.  I stamped the background using one of the Pieces of Calligraphy stamps with yellow ink.  I stamped Harvest Angel on a piece of white card, coloured and fussy cut it.  Gotta love a square fussy cut LOL.  Then I stamped part of Carmen's Veranda Queen of Everything stamp to get the Happy Birthday.

I hope you get time to join the I Am Woman challenge and don't forget to check all the wonderful inspiration from the team here on the blog.  Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Egg Harvest

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.
 I hope you are all feeling well and keeping yourself occuied during these strange times.
  I know that many crafters have been grateful for the stash they have
and the challenges, events and sales that the internet has enabled.

Our current challenge is Winged Things.  I decided to use the lovely Harvest Angel from Lost Coast Designs and make an artist trading card. 

I stamped Harvest Angel on white card with brown archival ink.  I left enough border so I could cut with an ATC die.  I coloured the angel with distress markers and Promarkers.  I left a bit of white around the image and coloured the rest with black Promarker as a frame.  I gave her silver glitter glue wings.  Her basket is filled with eggs.  I am out harvesting eggs every day and I am very grateful for the hens I have in my garden.  

 Join the Winged Things Challenge for your chance to win Lost Coast Designs and/or Carmen's Veranda stamps.  Linda also has a sale ongoing til the end of the month.
