HELLO & HAPPY HUMP DAY!! 
SQUEAL!! I'm SO EXCITED!!
Today I'm here today for my THIRD Post with Paper Smooches as their April Guest Designer!! I CAN'T WAIT to share what I've made for today!! I'm also linking up to the New Paper Smooches April Challenge: Showers!! I was thinking Showered with Rainbow Colored Pineapples meets the criteria!!?? Hope that Counts!!??  =)
I had SO MUCH FUN Playing with the April Release Products!! After getting my goodies, I decided it would be FUN to create a Colorful Pineapple Stamped Background using the Pineapple Crush Stamp Set!! I've used some older products too!! =) Let's take a Look!!

 While I was Stamping my Backgrounds I decided to Stamp Several at once beings I had everything out and ready to go!! I used Distress Oxide Inks and I DOUBLE Stamped them using the Rolling Technique to just Ink the outside edges of the Stamps to get a Shadow/Shaded Detail to the outside Edges of the Images!! I've used (Worn Lipstick & Fired Brick for the Pink Pineapples, Fossilized Amber & Spiced Marmalade for the Yellow Pineapples, Cracked Pistachio & Iced Spruce for the Turquoise Pineapples and Peeled Paint & Vintage Photo for the Leaves of the Pineapples)  Then I used the Outline Image and Embossed it  using the Walnut Stain Distress Embossing Powder!! Then a added a Black Cardstock Banner Die Cut from the Flag Tags Dies!! I also added some Pretty Pink Posh Sequins in colors to match!!

 This card looks ALOT like the First Card, but if you look close its DIFFERENT!! After I Stamped the Background and Embossed the Outline Image with Walnut Distress Embossing Powder I Sprayed the WOLE Panel with water from my Spray Bottle!! Its SO NEAT in REAL LIFE how the Colors Moved and Changed and Caused the OXIDIZED look to the Colors!! Parts of the Leaves turned Yellow and the Colors changed in depth!! SQUEAL!! Either way you're SURE to have FUN Stamping these Images and playing with the DIFFERENT looks you can get from the SAME products just trying different techniques!! 

For my Third Card I used SEVERAL of the New Release Products!! I've used the

Pineapple Crush Stamp Set and the Pineapple Crush Icons Die Set, Harlequin Die, Pineapple Crush 2 Stamp Set and the Bows Dies Die Set!!

I Splattered some of the Distress Oxide Fossilized Amber and Tattered Rose Distress Ink on the Card Base!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment from the Pineapple Crush 2 Stamp Set!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the Images and used Distress Inks to Watercolor them!! I Die Cut the Small Bow from some SSS Cardstock and Layered them for a Dimensional Bow!! Then I added some Spectrum Noir Clear Glitter Pen over the Bow, on the Pink in the Ears, Cheeks and Nose of the Bunny and then on the Drink!! For the Pineapple I used Distress Oxide Inks and I DOUBLE Stamped them using the Rolling Technique to just Ink the outside edges of the Stamps to get a Shadow/Shaded Detail to the outside Edges of the Image!! I used Fossilized Amber & Spiced Marmalade for the Pineapple and Peeled Paint & Vintage Photo for the Leaves!! Then I used the Outline Image and Embossed it again using the Walnut Stain Distress Embossing Powder!! I layered the Images onto the Harlequin Die Cut from Kraft Cardstock using Foam Tape to Pop them up and my Card was done!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way they ALL turned out and hope you do too!!??

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and  

I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK/WEEKEND and I'll see you again next Wednesday for my LAST Post for Paper Smooches as their April Guest Designer!!
