Tropical Party and Island Oasis paper...

I love the Crystal Effects on the coconut drink on this card, which was a swap at our demo meeting. It adds that thick, shiny layer nobody can resist touching!

Foliage from the Tropical Party stamp set was stamped on the Old Olive layer, then the umbrella paper from the Island Oasis pack was layered on Tempting Turquoise and placed over that.

The top layer was stamped, colored with markers, and watercolored.

I know my dad would love getting a card like this! (He loves receiving cards anytime!)

Tropical Party card...

I love the bright colors in the Island Oasis designer series paper pack.

And the Tropical Party stamp set, also in the Summer Mini, goes hand-in-hand with the paper.

I borrowed this idea from Connie Babbert. Look under May 4 on her blog. It's an Old Olive card with a 4" x 3-3/4" piece of this fun umbrella paper.

I used one of the stamps from the Everything Nice set, inking it up with Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise and Rose Red markers.

The coconut and one flower were cut out and popped up with dimensionals, as well as the top two layers of the card. Fun stuff!!!
