I took out some embossing paste and my Old Olive and Daffodil Delight re-inkers and mixed 2 drops of the Daffodil and 1 of the Olive since I wanted there to be a slight hint of green in my paste for a natural pineapple fruit look. I spread it over the that sectioned off area and then, after I removed the stencil and oval mask, set it aside to dry. The paste dries very fast (typically 5-7 minutes depending on how thick the paste was applied), so I was able to finish the rest of my pineapple after I cleaned off my stencil and tools used with the paste.
To create the fronds I took my aqua painter and both my Emerald Envy and Old Olive ink pads and made light brushstrokes that curved slightly out. I referred to actual pictures of pineapples to create the look of the fronds. I took some Soft Suede and my aqua painter to darken the individual "fruits" on the base of the fruit. After it dried, I fussy cut the whole pineapple out.
I added a few embellishments and added my sentiment, and that's my finished card! I just love the look watercolor with the embossing paste. It's such a fun and cool effect and creates so much texture. I definitely encourage you to give it a try!
