A big congrats to Melissa, the newest Featured Stamper (FS833)! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the whale get well theme, but used different images, dies & colors, & since my greeting was bigger, I moved it to the stenciled background.

For my little whale card, after coloring & die cutting him, I added a couple of rounded rectangles under him & a section of die cut blue waves below him. The background was stenciled w/ different colors, then the greeting was split, above and below him. 

The white rounded square & whale were popped up a bit.

Here are the Copics I used. I colored the whole set but ended up using just the whale, so the blues & greys were used on him.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge, we are headed to the Pinterest Board of Jodi McKee, where I found THIS picture for my inspiration.

My card started w/ a stamp, stencil & die combo. After stamping the outline, I used the multilayer stencil to sponge the greens, blue & purple inks onto the flower. I added a few highlights w/ a white Prismacolor pencil then used the coordinating die to cut it out.  For the pinwheel background, I die cut it out of dark purple & light purple, using the darker for the outside frame & the lighter for the inserts. It’s backed w/ a piece of designer paper. The greeting was stamped on the smallest size of the stitched rectangles set.

I used some fun foam to pop up the flower image.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC891) we are visiting a Clocks Inspiration Pinterest Board where I found THIS beautiful clock.


My card started w/ this beautiful new floral paper from Rubbernecker. The lovely floral image was stamped and I used the coordinating stencils to sponge color onto the roses and leaves. I also used some Prismacolor pencils to enhance them a bit. I die cut a large white circle and a partial sage green one, then used the long edge of the stitched rectangle die to cut the across the top of the green part. After attaching them together, I stamped the greeting, popped up the flowers up & attached them on top.

For some added interest, I added some pearls in 3 sizes to the circle.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
