Lily Wedding

A big congrats to Mary, the newest Featured Stamper (FS428)! She has such a super gallery & I noticed she uses this big circle front & center layout quite a bit, but I was really inspired by THIS card. I kept the layout and bow but used different images, slightly different colors & added some fussy cut lilies & left off the lace trim.

For my card, I stamped, colored & fussy cut two of the big calla lily images & one of the small lilies from the candle image. I already had the white die cut circle, so I stamped the rest of the candle image & the greeting on top. The backing circle was die cut then I stamped the stained glass image on top, colored it in, added a larger black circle behind it & a white lacy edge circle behind that.

The bow was also die cut, a little color added and attached on top of the lilies. Some white sequins were attached for just a little sparkle. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used.

Congrats again, Mary! Thanks so much for looking!

Flower Note

Posted on March 10, 2015 5:32 PM by Julie 3 Comments

I made this for today’s Color Challenge (CC521) on Splitcoast. The colors are Lagoon, Pear, Daffodil & Strawberry with the dessert option of using some kind of flowers (other than stamped). So I’m in for the dessert this time. As usual, since the colors are SU and I don’t have them, I subbed using Distress Inks that are very close.

For my background, I’m using one image from the Retro Starburst Cling Set. Check them out, they are really fun! Using a piece of paper cut to size & a die cut circle piece, I determined where on the card front I wanted my image to be. When I had that worked out, I die cut the top panel w/ the Spellbinders pierced rectangle then used a circle & a pierced circle die to cut my circles. I stamped the retro line circle inside each cut out using the 3 Distress inks. The greeting was a little too long, so I masked part of it out and rearranged the rest. Then I die cut & punched all my flower parts, sponged some w/ ink, put them all together and attached to my card.

I used a little frame and a leftover flower on the inside.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Tea Time

Posted on February 28, 2015 10:58 AM by Julie Comment

Today’s Inspiration Challenge (IC482) is a Pinterest Board full of Tea images. I didn’t have to go far to pick my inspiration…I chose THIS set. Tea sets usually make me think of lavenders & purples so it really appealed to me.

The tea set was stamped & colored very sparingly with Copics, then die cut & I used a pale lavender Copic around the edge. I used a scallop die twice to cut the lower edge of the larger white panel & also edge the top scallop w/ the same marker. On the top of this panel, I lined up the alphabet dies, die cut them, then trimmed the top down. I used the actual die cut letters, cut in half, for the top part & added a little aqua Copic to them. The tea border was stamped across the bottom of the die cut lavender panel & I added a die cut bow & tea rose on the side. The edge of the large lavender panel was also shaded a bit w/ the lavender marker.The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used.

This card is also on the Serendipity Blog today because Serendipity is one of the sponsors of the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop organized by Amy Tsuruta from Tsuruta Designs. You might want to click the link to the Serendipity Blog and check it out. They’re giving away some really fabulous prizes!
