Be Ridiculous

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 all!  We continue with this month's Numbers Challenge.  Today, I have an ATC I created using several LCD/CV stamps.
 I started out by spraying the background with several shades of blue and orange ink.  I then stamped the background with some numbers from the Rustic Alphabet Set.  I then stamped one of the images from the Mini Manga Set on a separate piece of card, colored it with pencils, then cut it out and added it to the left side.  I then stamped CV Ridiculous Not Boring on another piece of card I had sprayed with orange ink, cut it out, and arranged it down the right side.  Once the glue dried, I outlined it in black pen.

You can still get in on the fun and have a chance to win some LCD/CV rubber!  Just go HERE and link up your creation before Midnight, September 25th.

Happy Stamping!

Just a 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!

Good morning everyone!  The challenge this month is Numbers and we continue today with a tongue-in-cheek ATC I created.
 
 I created a background by heavily spraying with LSG Mists.  I then stamped my numbers using the License Plate Stamp Set.  I stamped my mouse using the Mother Goose Mice Stamp Set on a sheet of watercolor paper and then colored her with pencils.  I positioned her in the lower left corner then stamped CV Just a Cat on some red card, cut it out, and glued it down to the left side.  Finally I added a border using really thin tape (& I see now that it lifted on one corner).

Don't forget to get YOUR entry in for a chance to win some LCD/CV rubber.  Click HERE before midnight, September 25th to link up your numbers creation.  We also still have the Tip Your Hat event running so if you stamped it and it's got a hat enter it HERE before midnight, September 14th. 

Happy Stamping!
