It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge on Splitcoast (FS837)! So a big congrats to Pam! She has such a big, wonderful gallery. I didn’t have to go far to find THIS fun card. I kept the cute animals and slimline layout, but used bears instead of pups & made mine a birthday card. 

My slimline birthday card was really easy. I used a new, heavyweight paper pad that has all the images already colored plus the coordinating paper to go w/ them. I die cut all the cute bears, balloons & presents w/ the matching dies then die cut the circles bg paper & the slimline layers.


It was super simple to just arrange them & stamp the greeting above the presents. There is also a matching die for the birthday greeting, which I love.

I die cut some blank bears, balloons & presents & glued them underneath to add a little height to the images.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Happy New Year! It’s my pleasure to host the first Inspiration Challenge (IC839) of 2022 over at Splitcoast & I’ve chosen a site called Distinctivs & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS pic & also THIS one.


For my baby shower card, after stamping, colors & die cutting the baby ellie, I die cut the 4 baby blocks out of pink & again out of white. I replaced the centers w/ the white & stamped the letters using Distress spun sugar. The umbrella was die cut out of a lg paint chip & the top was popped up a bit. I used a pair of rectangle dies to make the wide pink frame & I also popped it up w/ foam. The rest was just arranging it all on top of a gray bg & adding the little pink raindrops.

These are the Copics I used on the ellie:

A big congrats to Mickey, the newest Featured Stamper (FS765) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the layout & scalloped layers in gradient colors, but I used different images, dies, different colors & left off the embossing.

For my fairly easy card, after coloring the baby elephant & balloons, I die cut them & added fun foam to the ellie & 1 balloon, & cardboard to 1 balloon. The gradually darker pink layers were cut w/ a wave die (which had the scallops I wanted), attached to an ivory layer then die cut. I didn’t stick the pink layers entirely down so they’d have a little lift like Mickey’s did. The greeting was stamped & some pink ribbon across the top, then the ellie & balloons. I separated a piece of black embroidery thread into 3 for the balloon strings & added a few pink gems.
