DDCC Tropical card

This week's Dutch Dare Card Challenge theme is Tropical. Oh I have struggled with this ... I haven't anything really suitable, so I have interpreted this theme loosely.


I love this image, but don't use it very often. I have watercoloured the image, and used my nesties to matt it. I have only used cardstock, but tried to use hot, tropical colours. I embossed and sanded the background, and use D'vine Swirls to create the feel of water. I doodled round the papers and added ribbon and cord. The star fish is from the bottom of my embellishment stash.

Do try to look at the other DT creations.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Sugar Nellie Rockpool
Colouring Media: Distress inks
Papers: Coredinations, cardstock
Embellishments: ribbbon, cord and starfish from stash

What a lovely card Cathy. I think it's very tropical. That SN image is lovely and beautifully coloured too. Love the colours.
