A big congrats to Terry, the newest Featured Stamper (FS649) on Splitcoaststampers! She has a wonderful gallery & after much browsing, I picked THIS card to case. When I saw those little peeps, the shape of them reminded me of these beach girls, lol. I kept the shapes & pink, blue & yellow colors, but used different images & dies, a different layout & made mine a summer card instead of Easter.

After coloring the girls, I ended up fussy cutting them so I could move them closer together. I die cut some sand dunes & waves along w/ the palm trees & lifeguard stand to make my little scene. (The textured gray I used for the lifeguard tower was a leftover & already had the distressed stripes embossed on it. I just used some of the same Copics to color the fence & roof.)  Looks like a fun time at the beach for these three!

Here’s the inside & the Copics I used to color everything.

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC710), we have a site w/ a lot of wonderful, handmade items. I was inspired by THIS coin purse. It reminded me of a new set of fox images I just rec’d.

After coloring & die cutting the pair of foxes & the little birds, I made a wide blue frame w/ a narrow white & narrow brown frame to fit the opening.  I attached the die cut birches on top of a piece of brown dp, then attached that behind the opening. The birches were shaded a bit w/ gray Prismacolor pencil.

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

Congrats to Lee Ann, the newest Featured Stamper (FS648) on Splitcoast! I’ve been a fan of Lee Ann’s for a long time & I had a hard time picking just one.  I kept coming back to THIS card. I loved the colors & silhouette image so I kept those, but I used die cut flowers instead of stamped, different greeting & added a couple of layers.

I started by cutting a mask that sort of followed the shape of the die cut flowers, then sponging the yellow orange on the right & turquoise on the left. I actually made 2 of these panels & die cut one smaller than the other to place on top. A black zigzag frame was added  & the black flowers were attached to a white version for a little dimension. I finished it w/ the greeting & some black sequins.
