I love the pineapple!  And I’ve wanted to use my new Stay Golden stamp set and matching dies from the late summer Essentials by Ellen release for a while!  So I made a sweet and sassy birthday card for someone very dear to me.

I used Distress inks to stamp the pineapple and cute little flowers, and there’s a little dry embossing on the gray layer just behind the pineapple.  Can you see it?  I also used my Copic markers to do a bit of highlighting on the pineapple.  Don't you just love the tiny pops of bright pink?

Now it’s your turn to play along with us!  We’d love to see what you create!
