It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS767) so a big congrats to my choice, Ashley! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the big harvest moon & blue bg, but used different images, dies & technique, & made mine a Halloween slimline.

For my card, I cut a lg circle out of copy paper & used the reverse mask to sponge in the yellows & a bit of orange for the big moon. Then I used the circle cut out to mask the moon & sponge in the blues for the bg. Since it had so much ink on it, I dried it a bit w/ my heat gun before putting it into my Misti & stamping the slimline silhouette image several times, for good coverage. Since it’s all one image, it made the card pretty quick & easy. I used a reverse mask of the slimline clouds die to sponge a bit of white to give the impression of clouds across the top. I die cut the Birthday & 2 Hellos (along w/ their outlines) then did a little surgery to make the word Boo.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

A big congrats to Dagmar, the newest Featured Stamper (FS766) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & uses so many great techniques. I chose THIS card to case. I kept the winter scene inside the masked shape but used different images & dies & made my scene a little bigger.

For my scenic Christmas card, I die cut the large scallop circle & used the reverse mask to cover all but the area where the scene would be. I used a curved mask to cover the sky area & sponged in the water, then used the reverse part to mask the water & sponged in the sky, leaving a white area between the two. I cut a bunch of masks for the rocks, since mine were all individual stamps, & stamped in the rocks. I covered the rocks & water & stamped the different size trees along the rocks. I used the scallop shaped mask to cover the scene, then stamped the snowflakes w/ white ink & embossed w/ holographic powder (it’s a little hard to see). A white Posca pen was used to add ‘snow’ dots to the sponged scene & also a little stickles for sparkle.

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC821) on Splitcoast, we’re going to a Roundscape Art Pinterest Board where I sort of found THIS picture. It’s not the exact one I used, but for the life of me, I cannot find it now. 

For my card, I die cut one white & one black panel. I shortened the black panel & die cut a partial circle out of it then sponged on the colors for the big moon on the white panel behind it.  I used a white Posca paint pen to add the white splatters to the top black bg & sponged on lighter colors on the lower white part. The die cut pine trees in black & gray were added across the bottom of the top black & the greeting stamped on the moon.
