Christmas CAS

Posted on September 27, 2014 9:53 PM by Julie 4 Comments

A big congrats to Jacquie, the newest Featured Stamper (FS399) on Splitcoast! What a wonderful gallery she has! I chose THIS card to case. I love the arc w/ the greeting and the wreath, so I kept those. I used a different greeting, a darker pink and a different embossing folder.

After I white embossed half of the greeting (the rest was too big) on the dk pink, I used a French curve ruler to pencil in the arc and hand cut it. The white panel was die cut and embossed. I die cut 2 of the wreaths out of heavy vellum and sort of spliced pieces together to make it bigger. The white embossed snowflakes were fussy cut and added along w/ the sequins & gems.

Congrats again, Jacquie! Thanks so much for stopping by!

3 Little Count Porkulas

What a fun Inspiration Challenge (IC460) on Splitcoast! I was inspired by THIS item. The squares reminded me of this Trick or Treat image. I stamped it & colored it w/ Copics. The 3 little pigs were stamped on a separate piece, colored & fussy cut. I know it looks like I may have cut out the blocks of the Trick or Treat image, but I didn’t…it’s just colored that way 🙂 So this is a pretty simple, quick little card and these are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you haven’t, please head on over and check out the DRS Thursday Challenge…this week, Leaf it to Me (use leaves on your card). DRS images are not required so be sure to link up your creation.

Ghoulie Neighborhood

Posted on September 25, 2014 11:28 AM by Julie 1 Comment

Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT498) is to use any tree. My card has some spooky little trees in the neighborhood. And some cute little ghosts in striped socks all ready to trick or treat.

My card is pretty quick & easy…I started by doing a brayered background w/ the yellow/orange end of rainbow pad and added a little red/orange toward the bottom. I die cut a black frame with an opening large enough so I could stamp my little scene inside on the bg. I also stamped the moon again on white, cut it out and glued it on top of the base. The greeting was white embossed and a white gel pen was used to fill in the little windows of the houses. The little ghouls were fussy cut and added on top.
