For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC816), we’re going to Apollo Box & their Pinterest Board, where I found THIS lovely picture. I liked the turquoise color & stripes in the bg.

For my 5″ square card, I die cut the sq. turquoise panel then placed it into my Misti & stamped it a few times using the diagonal lines bg & versaclair nocturne. The white layers were die cut w/ stitched squares & one of the borders of the square combo die. The layered flowers were stamped using turquoise & green Color fuse inks, then die cut w/ their matching dies. The top flowers were popped up & the greeting stamped in the corner.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC812) we’re going to a Surfboard Art Pinterest Board where I found THIS beautiful surfboard. I really liked the colors & rays coming down from the center.

For my card, I went w/ a slimline since it had a long layout, like the surfboard. I die cut the white & placed the sunburst stencil over the lower half of it & sponged the lt green & teal inks thru it. For the darker edges, I used a very small make up brush to go along the edges. I die cut a couple of angled borders, sponged one w/ the same inks & added them over the top where the stenciling ended. The beautiful daisies were half die cut, half fussy cut & attached to a white oval w/ a scalloped teal oval behind it. The greeting was simple white embossed onto black.

And these are the Copics I used:

It’s my pleasure to host the Featured Stamper Challenge this week. So a big congrats to Sandi, the newest Featured Stamper (FS750)! Sandi has the most amazing gallery & it was hard to chose just one, but I finally went w/ THIS card for my case. I kept the white banded bg die & floral theme, but I used different images & dies, different colors & made mine a slimline card.

For my birthday card, I die cut the white diagonal bg die & cut a long piece of butter yellow card to go behind it. On this yellow piece, I sponged some red & orange inks then used a stencil to add a bit more visual texture. The poppies were colored w/ Copics & half die cut/half fussy cut & popped up a little on top of the white bg. The greeting was white embossed on black.

Here are the Copics I used on the poppies:
