The Write Stuff

A big congrats to Holley, the newest Featured Stamper  (FS712) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the horizontal layout w/ the 4 critters, so I kept that, but I used gnomes instead of animals, different colors & left off the ribbon.

For my card, I colored & die cut these cute little gnomes, then die cut the large white layer. I used an inside rounded squares die to cut out the 3 openings then backed it w/ a white lattice pattern piece. The greeting was stamped on one of the square cutouts & the other 2 were backed w/ a shades of purple paint chip. I also used it to cut the line of grass across the bottom.

Here are the Copics I used. Since I colored them separately, there’s a different pic for each gnome.

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC773), we are headed to a photo site & I was inspired by THIS picture.

On my card, I stamped the new Slimline Birthday Bg image & colored it in w/ Copics. I die cut the white scallop layers & also the inside peekaboo die w/ the triple windows that open. Before attaching this layer over the bg, I stamped the birthday words on the outside of the little windows. Each little window opens a different direction to reveal part of the birthday image behind it

I added a narrow blue layer between the 2 white layers before attaching them to my card front.

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS711) this week & a big congrats to Patti! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the fall them & multi colors, but I used different images & instead of emboss resist, I black embossed onto a shaving cream bg.

For my card, I used a shaving cream bg I made a while back & I thought the colors would be perfect for a fall card. I die cut it then put it into my Misti & stamped this wonderful, new veined leaves bg in black & black embossed it on top. I love the bit of shine & deep black the embossing gives to the image. It’s backed w/ a black, inside scallop die cut panel & I used a smaller white one to stamp the greeting on. I wanted it to stand out a bit more, so I used a couple of rectangle dies to cut a narrow black frame to put around the greeting.
