It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS763) this week, so a big congrats to Natalie! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I love the original so I kept it really similar. I used different images & dies, made my plaid w/ a stencil & left off the bling.


For the lg bg, I used a 2 part plaid stencil & Distress soot to make the plaid. The deer was die cut out of red & several more times in white. On the red, I stamped it w/ a vertical stripe bg the rotated 90 degrees & stamped again to get the gingham look. A white half scallop layer was added under the red greeting panel & some die cut snowflakes were added to the plaid bg. Since I didn’t have an outline die for the deer, I used the 3 white versions & offset them to get the white outline.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC824), we have the Peruvian Connection Store & Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture.

For my card, I die cut the coverplate die out of heavy w/c paper & before I took it out of the die, I put painter’s tape across the back to hold all the inset pieces together. I removed the frame part & attached it to one I cut out of cardboard to elevate it a bit. I had a bunch of colors of the Brushos already mixed in a palette so I added water & painted the inset pieces w/ the different colors. When they dried, I went over them all w/ some iridescent w/c medium to add the sparkle. Then I peeled them off the tape & attached them inside the frame. The little greeting & a couple of die cut flourishes were added to finish.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

A big congrats to Splitcoast’s newest Featured Stamper! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the circles but changed the arrangement up a bit. Used different images & dies & made mine a Christmas card.

On my card, I die cut Santa & the sleigh out of white then colored the parts w/ Copics. The reindeer was cut out of kraft & I used markers & a white pencil to color him. I stamped the snowflakes w/ the pale blue ink over the bg. The painted blue circles were cut from a leftover bg I made on THIS post. The stitched snowy hills w/ the greeting were added at the bottom.

Here are the Copics I used on the die cuts:
