Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical Sneak Peek Pineapple Card

Good Morning! Today I have a sneak peek of a new stamp bundle from the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog called Timeless Tropical. The Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical bundle is part of the Tropical Oasis Suite and consists of the Timeless Tropical cling stamp set and the In the Tropics dies. This bundle has beautiful images of palm trees and tropical flowers and a cute pineapple die cut. And that’s what I used in today’s card. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

The layout for my card was inspired by the Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC220 Keep It Open. Here is the sketch:

I sponged a Crushed Curry panel with Crushed Curry, Old Olive and Crumb Cake ink to create a splotchy look and then cut it out with the pineapple base die cut. I cut the pineapple top out of Mossy Meadow card stock and sponged the edges with Old Olive ink. I gently folded some of the leaves outward to give it movement and dimension.

I embossed a Soft Suede panel with the Coastal Weave embossing folder. I adhered a panel of the Tropical Oasis designer series paper to the embossed panel. I just love the retro station wagons with the wooden sides and surfboards on tom – how fun! I cut out the aloha sentiment using the die from the In the Tropics dies using Pretty Peacock card stock and adhered it to the DSP. I adhered the pineapple to the DSP with multipurpose liquid glue being careful not to get glue on the leaves that were bent out. Then I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Sea Foam card base.

I stamped the Rest and Relax sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical stamp set using Soft Suede ink on a panel of Thick Whisper White card stock and cut it out with the large label die from the Merry Christmas dies. I sponged the edges of the label with Crumb Cake ink and adhered it to a piece of the Braided Burlap trim with glue dots. I frayed the ends of the trim and adhered it to the card with more glue dots.

I stamped the palm trees from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical stamp set on a Whisper White panel using Soft Suede ink after stamping off twice. I adhered a strip of the DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhered it to the inside of the card. I also stamped the palm trees on the side of a Whisper White medium envelope in Soft Suede ink after stamping off once.

This new Tropical Oasis suite is versatile with lots of pretty florals, tropical foliage and great sentiments too! I’m ready for a tropical vacation, aren’t you?
