Be Happy Flowers

Posted on July 26, 2014 9:39 PM by Julie 2 Comments

A big congrats to Heidi (stamptek), the newest Featured Stamper (FS390) on Splitcoast! What a beautiful, colorful gallery she has! I chose THIS card to CASE. I just loved the flowers and trimmed edge w/ the embossing on the right, so I kept those. I used different images, different embossing folder and different colors.

For my version, I stamped the outline flowers w/ worn lipstick close to the edge of piece of white card stock then trimmed around them. On an acrylic block, I smushed the lipstick & marigold ink pads, then spritzed the rubber of my solid flower image and pressed it to the inked block then stamped them on another piece of white c/s. I used a stamp positioner to line up the outline ( but slightly off, to keep a bit of the white) and stamped it in black on top. I used the matching die to die cut them and attached them down the side. The left side was die cut and I sponged the two Distress inks, pulling them near the flower edge.

The coral panel on the right was die cut & embossed & attached under the edge of the flowers. I added just a bit more color to the flowers w/ a couple of Copic markers then added the big black gem centers & the greeting in the upper left. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

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

For my card, I used cool teal and turquoise colors. To make the background, I die cut a white strip and several colors of turquoise/teal with a border die. I attached them to a white panel then pieced the different colors of the cut outs back into some of the spaces left. The flower (sunflower) was colored w/ Copics and fussy cut. I added a wrinkled seam ribbon bow topped off w/ a flower button tied w/ twine and the greeting on a little die cut tag. Just a touch of Wink of Stella was added to the flower center. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

The two challenges today on Splitcoast, the CAS281 (a color challenge) and the TLC490 (stamp, punch) seemed doable as a combination, so that was the direction I went. My card isn’t quite as clean & simple as I originally intended, but it’s close enough for me, since most everything is punched or die cut.

The fun greeting was stamped on a large die cut tag and again a few times on scrap pieces. I used a multi tag punch to punch out parts of the greeting, then added a some color w/ my Copics and popped them up on top of the original greeting. The teapot & cup were die cut and I added a scrap behind the roses parts that I also added color. The peach doily was die cut as well as the white & coral layers.

The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
