Swing from a Star

Posted on April 7, 2019 9:49 AM by Julie 1 Comment

A big congrats to Angie, the newest Featured Stamper (FS635) on Splitcoast! She has a beautiful gallery & I chose THIS to case, mainly because I have the same image. Since I did use the same image, I changed most everything else..the colors, dies & layout.

My card started with a Brusho background I made ages ago. It’s sort of how I imagine deep space would look & thought it would look good behind this happy little girl, who’s in her own little world, blissfully swinging from a star. Remember that feeling, as if you’re flying? I put her in my Misti, stamped, colored her w/ Copics then overstamped her. I stamped the greeting on a circle die cut & added a narrow frame. The stars were die cut out of white glitter paper.

Below is the inside, using leftovers from the front & next to it are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Neighborhood Hi

A big congrats to Sunny, the newest Featured Stamper (FS631)! She has a small, but gorgeous gallery. After strolling around for awhile, I chose THIS to case. I kept the houses & hot air balloon, but used different dies & stamped instead of die cut houses & used a die cut greeting.

After adding just a little color & fussy cutting the row of house, I die cut the trees, balloon, clouds, grass & greeting out of white. The trees & grass were colored & I found a piece of watercolor bg for the balloon & die cut it again to add the inserts. The Hi is actually from a Hugs die but I trimmed it to get what you see.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

Hello Bird

A big congrats to Susan, the Newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! She has a fabulous gallery & I chose THIS to case. I kept the bird, layout & big letters, but used different images & dies & made a Wrinkle Free Distress background.

After using the Distress inks to make my bg, I colored & fussy cut the Bird & Cat. I did my big letters a little differently..I die cut them out of more of the bg, outlined them w/ black & added a white version underneath. Now I don’t know if this cat thinks the bird is lunch or if he’s asking the bird to get him some lunch, lol. But I suspect the latter. I watched a funny video where some people caught their parrot ordering stuff by using Alexa. Birds are pretty smart!

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
