Welcome to January 2022! And it’s time for the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club January Christmas Challenge! You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Thank you, Stacy, my friend, for 10 yrs of wonderful challenges! We’re all sad to see you go, & since this will also be my last on this challenge, I wanted to make sure to honor you.
I chose a non-Christmas card to case..Big Blooms 4 by Twinshappy at Splitcoaststampers lovely card of yours. The angle is such a great detail, so I kept it. I did move the greeting to the main panel & left off the embossing. I used the Color Fuse inks to stamp some pinecones, greenery & berries in the lower left corner & a few extra that I die cut w/ the matching dies. I used the long edge of the stitched border die to cut the corner off then added a scallop edge underneath it. The extra images were popped up above the angled cut.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC822) this week. We’re headed to Not on the High Street & their Pinterest Boards where I found THIS picture.
For my card, I die cut a narrow gold circle then used a smaller one to cut out the inside. The 2 different holly dies were used w/ 2 different colors of metallic gold card stock. Some gold cord was wrapped around the circle, tied in a bow & the loose ends wound around the outside of the circle. The greeting was gold embossed below then the holly added on the simple wreath.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC798), we are headed to the Pinterest Board of Penguin Random House, where I found the cover of THIS book for my inspiration.
On my card, I used a clear layering stamp set for the flowers & the added leaves. I used several different sets of the Color Fuse inks then die cut them w/ their matching dies. A separate vine like leaf image was used to stamp the branched onto the large white panel then all the die cut flowers & leaves were attached on top. The greeting & a few gems were added to finish. Pretty easy!
