June Color Challenge 198 — A Turquoise and Terracotta Snarky Card!

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!

Greetings! You've got Kathi here today to share a card created for June's Color Challenge 198 with the turquoise/terracotta color scheme and a bit of snark, courtesy of the Giveashitometer Sentiment Clear Stamp by Carmen's Veranda.

Here it is!

When I saw the Giveashitometer Sentiment Clear Stamp, I immediately thought that the Voltage Bigz Die would be perfect with it, so my first step was to cut and assemble the shitometer with terracotta and turquoise patterned papers, small alphabet cutting dies, and small rub-ons. 

I stamped the Giveashitometer Sentiment Clear Stamp with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed with black detail embossing powder. 

I did some more paper layering and called it done! Every now and then it's fun to do a quick and easy card, especially when that card has a touch of snark to make one giggle. 

You still have a bit more than a week to participate in this month's challenge for the chance to win some Lost Coast Ca$h!

Hello Portal Peeps!!   Are you enjoying all the wonderful colour inspiration on the blog this month??  Two beautiful colour schemes to choose from and today I went with Terracotta and Turquoise.

I started with a pale turquoise patterned card panel and randomly stamped Lost Coast Designs large circle Shadow Frame with salty ocean distress ink.  I egded the panel with the same ink.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs Pokey Cat on the card panel and then on white card using archival sepia ink.  I watercoloured the cat with rusty hinge distress ink and blue gel pen and fussy cut.  The sentiment is Carmen's Veranda Ask For Directions sentiment. 

Join the colour challenge fun.  Link up your stamped anythings featuring the colours LEMON AND LIME or TERRACOTTA AND TURQUOISE.

Hello Portal Peeps!!   Gail here today with some more Lemon and Lime inspiration.  This month we are asking you to pick a colour scheme between Lemon and Lime or Turquoise and Terracotta.   The choice is yours!  Your anything should feature mostly your two chosen colours and don't forget to stamp.

I've kept it simple and used the lovely Jester Square by Carmen's Veranda coloured with green and yellow distress watercolouring.  I stamped the Happy Birthday and Do I smell cake? from Lost Coast Designs Party Words using Prickly Pear archival ink.

 

Grab your stamps and pick your colour scheme and join the fun.   We give a real rubber stamp prize to our randomly picked winner, but we do need at least 20 entries to award the prize, so tell your friends and get stamping!!
