Sunshine and Pink

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne today with another tropical card.  I love the sentiment on this card - probably because I love the sun and I love the color pink!  I used the Flamingo with Hibiscus and the Tropical Bouquet dies from the new release. Tropical Bouquet is one of my all time favorites!  It features two flowers I love; hibiscus and plumeria.  On today's card I used the plumeria.  They are gorgeous, easy to create and add a special touch to any card!

To start I cut the flamingo using Flirty Flamingo cardstock, as well as a light pink and grey.  For the black pieces, I colored the light pink pieces with black Copic marker.

For my flowers I went into my scrap box and got several colors of pink making sure I had a variety of tones.  The plumeria have two layers - a larger bottom layer and a smaller top layer.   After gluing these two together, I used pink ink to brush the edges and added the black centers.  Super simple and very elegant.  I used the DO ink to edge my flamingo.

I cut a panel 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches that will be adhered to an A2 card base, and three other panels.  A white one 5 1/2 x 2 5/8 inches, a pink 5 1/2  x 2 3/4 inches and a yellow dot 5 1/2 x 2 inches.

Using a stencil and yellow ink, I created a sun for under the flamingo on the narrow white panel.

I stamped my sentiment and assembled the layers.

I added my flamingo, flowers and a few sequins.  Super easy card and perfect for anyone who loves pink, flamingos, flowers or sunshine!
