Rock or Pop: Gnome in the meadow.

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! Today I show you my Pop-up card for the current challenge Rock or Pop! There's still some time for you to participate!


As I said, I made a pop-up card this time, so much fum to make this! First I fold a white A5 card in half and drew the lines for the 4 popping strips and cut them. I sponged the card with Distress ink in greens and blues, splashed some water and dried the card. With green ink, I stamped the big Shrubbery stamp, and Happy Birthday (Party Words) with black ink. 


I stamped the gnome (Three gnomes) , cows (Cow), butterflies (More Bugz) and bird (Cat and Bird) onto a seperate piece of paper, cut them out and coloured them with colour pencils. I glued them onto the strips of the card and also on the card itself.


Hope you give it a try, see you next time!

Happy New Year 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!

Cathy here with a New Year card.
Stamps Used:

I started out with the three gnomes and cut them out with my scan-n-cut and colored them with copic markers. I did add some sparkle to their hats with a sparkle gel pen. 
To make the background I used some sliver stencil paste and a star stencil. I then placed a sliver glitter paper strip on the bottom so the gnomes can stand on it. 
Stamp 2022 from the license plate alpha in purple ink and add to the top. There you have a gnomes new year's card.

You still have time to join the gnome challenge here.

It's All In The Cards

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 Thursday. It's Sue here and I'm sharing my huge playing cards with you for our fun 'Numbers' challenge.



I started with these three giant cards from my deck, they are about 8 inches tall.


For my numbers, I used a couple of Lost Coast borders, Bingo, and Numbers and just cut them out and layered them.

Now it's time for the gnomes! This is the Ace of gnomes, Book Gnome, and I've teamed him with the Carmen's Veranda sentiment Power Of Coffee.


Next, it's the two of gnomes, Sunglasses Gnome which I've put together with Full Ass.


And finally the three of gnomes with Three Gnomes and The Ass Family


These are the stamps that I used,

Bingo

Numbers

Book Gnome

Sunglasses Gnome

3 Gnomes

Power of Coffee

Ass Family



These were great fun to make, I hope you like them and that you join in with our challenge. Just join up with the linky for the chance to win some Lost Coast dollars.

Take care and have a very happy day x
