Gold Pumpkin

Posted on October 28, 2017 10:00 PM by Julie 1 Comment

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper Challenge (FS560)! A big congrats to Jennie, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a big, beautiful gallery & after much browsing, I settled on THIS to case. I kept the pumpkin & Thanksgiving theme but used different images, a little different layout & only a strip of dry embossing instead of a full bg.
For my gold pumpkin card today, I gold embossed this lovely Filigree Pumpkin onto ivory c/s then die cut it & added a gold pierced circle layer behind it. The square panel behind them is a small bg I made w/ Distress oxide inks & stamped over it w/ gold ink using the Splatter Bg. The larger ivory layer has the greeting gold embossed & I also added a little gold embossing all around the edges. The long rust color strip was a leftover that I dry embossed w/ an embossing folder.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

First of all, if you live along the Texas coast, I’m truly sorry for all you’re going through. I grew up in Corpus Christi & lived in Houston a long time. If New Orleans is shaped like a cereal bowl, then Houston is a flat rock w/ bayous running all thru it. We lived thru many a flood there (and lots of bad hurricanes!) but nothing like this. I’ve been calling all my relatives in TX to check on them. Thankfully, so far, they’re all ok. And now…a big Congrats to Chris, the newest Featured Stamper (FS552)! She has a fabulous gallery & after much oohing & aahing, I chose THIS to case. I kept the layout but turned it on its side & used different images, different colors & made mine a Halloween card.

I wanted a gradient color behind the Oct 31 square, so I first colored that using Copics, then put it into my Misti & stamped it several times to get a good dark impression. I fussy cut it then popped it up a bit on a larger gradient square then onto a black square. The Spider Webs were white embossed on black & I added a couple of gradient strips down the side. The funky edge is actually the left over from a die cut border. I liked it better than the die cut so there you go. I finished by stamping just the word Halloween & added a punched spider.

You’ll notice on the inside pic below, that the main greeting is upside down. Apparently my Halloween card was playing trick or treat w/ me & turned itself upside down when I stamped it. So I just made it part of the “trick” & put the Trick or Treat on the other half. Since the card was all finished & glued down, I couldn’t just take it apart. Under the tricky inside are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: DRS Designs – Oct 31st Square, Empty Spider Web , Bump into Me (inside- Smell My Feet)

Paper: Staples 110# white, black

Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Colorbox frost white pigment

Accessories: Misti, Copic markers, Spellbinders squares, Ironworks Accents border dies, spider punch, white embossing powder

Christmas Rooftops

Posted on August 26, 2017 10:51 PM by Julie Comment

A big congrats to Christine, the newest Featured Stamper (FS551) on Splitcoast! She has such a lovely gallery & she loves to play the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges! After much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I kept the Christmas theme & most of the colors, but I used different images, put my image in a window & turned mine horizontal.

After stamping & coloring the Rooftops, I added a little white gel pen for snow then die cut it to fit into a long rectangle window. The snow bg was stamped in silver on all of the layers & heat embossed w/ some transparent glitter ep. I made sure to leave an area to add the new greeting then stamped, colored & fussy cut the Christmas lamp post to add on top.

I’m also adding this Stacy’s August Fan Club Christmas challenge.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
