A big congrats to Bonnie, the newest Featured Stamper (FS805) on Splitcoast! She has a fab gallery & after much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the penguin in the frame, but used different images, dies & colors & changed it from Christmas to summer.

For my summer penguins card, after stamping, coloring & die cutting them, I die cut the new polaroid frame and used a separate piece behind it. On that, I used a wave & a cloud stencil to add some background, then added the die cut palm tree before attaching the penguins & frame. A little stickles was added to the ice cream & waves.

Sorry, I either misplaced or forgot to take the picture of the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Supplies:

Memento Inks	Staples 110# White Card Stock	X-Press It Blending Card	MISTI	Copic Sketch Markers
Echo Park Summer Splash paper	Stickles

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS802) & a big congrats to Maggie! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the 3 windows & the sunny yellow & bright pink colors, but used different images & dies & made mine a slimline card w/ a stenciled bg.

For my summer card, I used a sunburst stencil & a couple of yellow inks to sponge in the sun rays. Since the stencil is a 6″square, I had to move it to cover the entire front. I used a reverse circle mask to sponge in the center of the sun. The penguins were stamped, colored & die cut then arranged on top of the blue waves I cut to go behind the yellow window frame. The greeting was stamped in the center window.

Here are the Copics I used:

A big congrats to Gayle, the newest Featured Stamper (FS792) on Splitcoast! She has a sweet little gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the layout & most of the colors, but used different images, dies, added some layers & did a little dry embossing.

For my ginger yoga cat, I stamped & colored it w/ Copics, then stamped the Calm part of the greeting right under it. A narrow dk brown layer along w/ the rust colored loopy edge layer were added behind. The white layer was embossed w/ a folder & since I didn’t have a large enough dk brown layer to add under it, I colored just the edge of another white layer w/ a dk brown Copic. The rest of the greeting was stamped on a narrow strip & attached on the embossed layer. A piece of designer paper was the final layer.
