A big congrats to Kim, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! She has a fun little gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept most of the layout, but used different images, dies & colors & left off the designer paper.

For my card, I stamped & colored the calico cat, added the greeting then used a stitched circle die & a little out of the box to keep from chopping off his tail. I’ve never had a cat, but I don’t imagine they like it if you mess w/ their tails. On the turquoise layer, I stamped the coffee bean all over using the 2 darkest browns of the Color Fuse set #3 & used a water brush to drag the color into the bean just a bit. The brown layer was cut w/ the stitched hills & Calico cat was popped up a little using some fun foam.

Here are the Copics I used.

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC796), & the site I chose is Freepik. There is a ton of inspiration in all the pictures & designs & after much browsing I chose THIS as my inspiration.

For my card, I started w/ a die cut white panel & masked off the edges & sponged the lt aqua ink over it. I die cut a mask (see pic below) & used to sponge in the bokeh bg over the aqua. A few lighter circles were added using Distress picket fence ink. I added the white zig zag frame, then stamped, die cut & shaped the daisies. The partial greeting was stamped & the Hugs was triple stacked for dimension. I die cut a couple of different sizes of the mixable flower stack to use as flower centers then added a little stickles in the yellow centers.

Here’s the pic of the die cut mask I used for the bokeh bg.

Welcome to March!  And it’s time for the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club March  Christmas Challenge! We have a year of new Christmas Challenges!  You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Bet you’re wondering what the challenge theme is..I’d love to tell you but you’ll have to go see for yourself. Hint..I’m really loving the new theme for this year.

For my card, I die cut the wonderful deer in the circle out of cobalt blue & again out of white & stacked them a little offset. I die cut a larger circle & sponged the color onto it, then placed it behind the deer. The lg white background was stamped  w/ the snowflake frame in the blueberry ink & heat embossed w/ a sparkly, transparent powder. The greeting was embossed in white onto the narrow cobalt strip.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
