Be a Pineapple

Vicki is our hostess this week forJust Us Girls Challenge #638 and her beachy picture has inspired us all in different ways! Check out all of the team's cards by clicking on their names above their pictures for some summer fun! I'm sharing my beach-inspired card over at Timeout Challenges: Tropical here, as well as The Four Seasons Challenge: Summery here and the Double D Challenge: Beach Time here.


















I used an oldie but goodie pineapple stamp and die set that comes with the sunglasses. After I stamped and colored with Copic markers, I die cut the sunglass frames with black glitter card stock, then again with silver for the lenses. I attached the sunglasses to each pineapple, then heat embossed my pineapple sentiment  and matted it with same black glitter card stock. There are so many cute pineapple cards on Pinterest if you feel like you want to make something with them, but you can also make a card with a body of water, flowers, fruit, flip flops, these colors, etc. Hope you enjoy our cards this week and will share your cards with us!

Products I used:

Paper Smooches: Pineapple Crush stamp set

Bossy Joscie: Pineapple sentiment stamp

Copic markers

Black glitter card stock

Silver shiny card stock

Stampin' Up!: Black embossing powder

Versamark ink pad
