It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC761) & as a special treat, the IC Team & the FS Team are putting on a “crossover event” & we’ll be joining forces for both challenges this weekend! For the IC Challenge, we’re headed to Color Shot &/or the Color Shot Pinterest Boards. Since it’s the 4th of July weekend, I picked THIS for my inspiration.
To make my card, I used some Brushos & painted from both ends, letting it run & flow. I added a few splatters then die cut using a new slimline die. The fireworks dies were arranged at the top, cut & I added glitter paper behind them. All of the fireworks were die cut out of 3 colors of glitter paper, put together & added on top. I found a greeting that seemed to fit the theme & the space in the center of the fireworks & added it.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC760), we’re visiting a Pinterest Boards called Happy Walls. I was really struck by THIS mural & used it for the inspiration for my card.
For my card, I stamped the image & left her mostly black & white. I added just a little color to her eyes & lips w/ an E53 Copic & also added some gold Wink of Stella on top of her lips. I used a lt cool grey Prismacolor pencil to add just a touch of contour to her face. The branches were all die cut out of silver glitter paper & I used the same Copic marker to make some of the leaves a champagne color. She’s popped up a bit on top of the ovals & then attached on top of a die cut floral frame.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

A big congrats to Trudy, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS to case. I really did case her card..even though it may not look like it. I loved the color in the bg w/ the die cut on top so that’s what I kept. I used different colors, dies & sponging instead of brayering.
I took a few extra pics to show you how I got the color in precise areas & left a white highlight.
First, I attached the black die cut to the white card stock w/ temporary adhesive (pic above). Then I used the makeup brushes to apply the colors in specific areas.I didn’t worry about getting in on it since it’s black, I knew it wouldn’t show.
You can see the negative white image when I remove the die cut. I started to use it just like that, but then decided it added more drama to put the black die cut back in on top, but I shifted it slightly, to leave a white highlight on the right side (pic below). I like how it resembles stained glass.
The birthday greeting is part of a balloon image & trimmed off the balloons after die cutting it & attached it to an oval frame.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
