Hello stampers! We are back with a brand new challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments! It's an Inspiration Challenge this time and the chosen theme is flamingos! I just love this! I was inspired by the flamingos, of course, and the colors in the bottom right picture.
I'm also playing along with Just Us Girls #449--Watercolor Background and Just Add Ink #417--Just Add "T". My "T" is tropical!
I combined a couple of stamp sets here--the always awesome Fabulous Flamingo and the wonderful new Tropical Chic. I'm loving the variety of leaves and the matching dies that this set coordinates with! I think the card possibilities could be endless using this set!
I chose to only use the solid image from Fabulous Flamingo as I wanted to keep my flamingo "silhouetted".
I did a watercolor wash on the background and did some spattering as well.
a few sequins and some old Coastal Cabana ribbon (which I still have from when Coastal Cabana was an In-Color) finished off my card.
Here's a list of my supplies....
Stamps: Fabulous Flamingo, Tropical Chic
Ink: Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party
Paper: Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Whisper White, Watercolor
Accessories: Petal Burst EF, Tropical Thinlits dies, Iridescent sequins, Coastal Cabana ruffled ribbon
Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Very pretty and so tropical, Jenny! I waited to get this flamingo stamp set because I had the Pop of Paradise. Now that it's retired it might be time to purchase! LOL Love your background and the new tropical bundle added just the right touch. Love it!!
