Foxglove

Posted on July 2, 2019 10:43 AM by Julie Comment

For the Color Challenge (CC746) on Splitcoast, we have a really bright pink, pale pink & apple green. I’ve had this stamped Foxglove image sitting around for a long time. I don’t have the exact colors but I think I came close.

After coloring & die cutting the foxglove, I die cut a bunch of crochet borders out of the white, pinks & greens then colored just the very edges of some of them. I attached them to the card front, offsetting each row. To give the image a bit of separation from the bg, I added an embossed white panel behind it.

These are the Copics I used:

Mermaid Tails

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC708) we have Converse shoes. They actually have a colorful, fun site & I was inspired by THIS pair of shoes. I love the rainbow of colors.

For my card, I first white embossed the mermaid tails & little fish then used Distress reinkers & a waterbrush to create the rainbow of colors.The paintbrush was used to float in water, a section at a time, then drops of the reinkers were added. I made another little scrap like it to use for the die cut the “Happy”. A little splatter, some sequins, the stamped rest of the greeting & done.

Here’s the inside..I did a little masking to recreate the Fintastic part.

Wonderful Azaleas

Posted on June 21, 2019 9:31 PM by Julie 1 Comment

The Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC707) is a fabric site full of colors & patterns. I was inspired by THIS fabric for the bright colors. From the thumbnail, it looked floral to me so that’s the direction I went.

Instead of embossing resist, I did the reverse on my background. I sponged on the Distress inks, dried it w/ a heat gun then used my embossing buddy over to make sure it was really dry. (It probably would have been easier to emboss, then sponge, but sometimes it’s hard to get all of ink off of the embossing & I wanted it to be really crisp & white.) Then the azaleas were white embossed on top. The white front was die cut twice w/ a stitched curve die to make the split thru the center. After adding the greeting, I die cut some tiny flowers out of leftover background pieces & attached them.

Here’s a look at the inside. The azalea image is a 2 part stamp & while I only used the outline on the front, I used both here on the inside. There’s also a matching die for it, if you’re interested.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
