For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC859) we’re visiting Crazy Dog T-shirts & their Pinterest Board. I picked THIS pair of socks for my inspiration.

My card is very dimensional w/ the monstera leaf triple layered die. I cut the bottom layer out of white, the middle out of yellow & the top vein layer out of hot pink. I used a piece of the Tropical Brights paper (included in the Blessings Box) for the background & used some foam tape to elevate the first monstera layer. The flowers were colored & die cut along w/ the circle greeting.

Here are the Copics I used for the flowers (the flowers were left over from another card, so I used them here):

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS797) so a big congrats to Karen! She has a big, beautiful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme and long layout but used different images, dies & stencil.

For my card, I used a new stamp set & coordinating stencil. The stencil has layered parts so it’s so quick & easy to add color w/ no masking..I just love it! After I stamped it, I used the stencil to sponge on the yellows & lt reds for the flower & greens for the leaves. I did a little out of the box to keep from cutting off parts of the flower when I die cut it w/ mini slimline die. I added the greeting on its own oval & backed it w/ a scallop oval. On the lg green bg, after die cutting w/ the larger mini slimline, I used a new piercing cover die for some added interest.

Since I forgot to add the ink colors in my top picture, here are the colors I used to sponge the flower & leaves:

A big congrats to my dear friend Kittie as the newest Featured Stamper (FS896) on Splitcoast! Does she have a fabulous gallery? Definitely! And it was so hard to choose, but I finally picked THIS card to case. I kept the white on white & formed flowers, but I used different dies & stamps & turned mine horizontal instead of a vertical.

For my card, I die cut the main white panel with a stitched rectangle then used a new piercing die for the flower bg. I die cut the fancy center panels, stamped the greeting not he smaller one, then added the white flowers & clear gems.
