A big congrats to Jo Anne, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! She has such a cute little gallery & I chose THIS to case. I kept the giraffe in the frame but used different images, different papers & a different embossing folder.

To make my birthday card, I first stamped, colored & die cut the cute little giraffe. Then I made a polka dot frame & die cut some greenery to go around him. The white bg was embossed in a folder before adding it to the orange polka layer. I used just a section of a die to cut the tab w/ the greeting then attached it to the frame. 

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

A big congrats to Nancy, the newest Featured Stamper (FS804) on Splitcoast! She has a sweet gallery & since I needed a card for a baby girl I chose THIS to case. I kept the layout & baby girl theme, but used different images, different paper & different dies.
For my card, I stamped partials of the 3 baby animals, colored them & die cut them w/ double stitched squares (using my out of the box technique to keep the ears & trunk intact on the ellie). I used the same square die to cut out the large white panel & placed my images in the openings. Plaid paper strips were added to the sides & some sheer ribbon across the bottom before attaching to the card. Two stamps were put together to create the greeting.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC661) & I chose Brit+Co. I love their colorful displays & I chose the picture below for my inspiration.

To make my card, I stamped the different cactus plants, colored them & the large one had a matching die but the 2 smaller were fussy cut. I used an stitch arch die to cut the window opening & to make the frame around the opening. Then I put a piece of watercolor background behind it. The greeting was stamped on a stitched tag die cut & I used my die resizing technique to shorten the tag.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
