A big congrats to Karen, the newest Featured Stamper (FS755) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme but used different stamps, dies & colors. I also changed the layout a bit.

For my thank you card, I stamped the layered flowers using the Color Fuse inks then die cut the white panel using my out of the box technique & a slimline die for the flower on the left. The black layer was die cut w/ a larger die & attached behind. The greeting was white embossed & I added a line of pearls as embellishments.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Welcome to June!  And it’s time for the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club June  Christmas Challenge! We have a year of new Christmas Challenges!  You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Bet you’re wondering what the challenge theme is..I’d love to tell you but you’ll have to go see for yourself. Hint..I’m really loving the new theme for this year.

On my CAS Christmas card, Santa & the other images were stamped, colored & die cut w/ their matching dies. Santa & the small circle greeting were popped up a bit & since the bottom looked too empty to me, I added a couple of snow hills w/ a little stickles across the tops.

Here are the Copics I used. I also used BG01 for the blue/green elements, but it somehow didn’t make it into the pic.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS747) this week & a big congrats to Diane! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the palm trees & birthday theme, but I used different images & dies, left off a layer & skipped the embossing. 

For my beachy bday card, I die cut the smaller white panel, then used a large reverse circle mask that left the area w/ the sun open so I could sponge the yellows & orange inks to create my sun. The waves were die cut out of a couple of colors of blue, the palms trees out of brown w/ the fronds from some different scraps of green, then they were pieced together. I hand cut a small island out of the brown to ground the trees  then added the 3 seagulls. To add a little texture to the palm fronds, I took a piercing tool & creased the lines on them. I did the same to the trunks of the trees.

Here’s the inside:
