It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS797) so a big congrats to Karen! She has a big, beautiful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme and long layout but used different images, dies & stencil.
For my card, I used a new stamp set & coordinating stencil. The stencil has layered parts so it’s so quick & easy to add color w/ no masking..I just love it! After I stamped it, I used the stencil to sponge on the yellows & lt reds for the flower & greens for the leaves. I did a little out of the box to keep from cutting off parts of the flower when I die cut it w/ mini slimline die. I added the greeting on its own oval & backed it w/ a scallop oval. On the lg green bg, after die cutting w/ the larger mini slimline, I used a new piercing cover die for some added interest.
Since I forgot to add the ink colors in my top picture, here are the colors I used to sponge the flower & leaves:

A big congrats to Kristine, the newest Featured Stamper (FS791) on Splitcoast. She has a beautiful gallery & after much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I kept the cute dog theme but ended up changing most everything else. I used different stamps, dies & colors & used fewer layers w/ no designer paper.
After coloring the cute dog couple, I die cut them along w/ a few extra blanks in order to pop them up a bit. The kraft bg was stamped w/ a cheesecloth bg & cinnamon ink. I wanted a narrow, dk brown layer behind the dogs, but didn’t have the right color so I used a Copic marker to color just around the edges that would show before attaching it. The outline heart was also colored w/ Copics & I used a clear glaze pen to add some shine & dimension to the tiny hearts above the greeting & also the dogs’ eyes.
These are the Copics I used:

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS785) this week so a big congrats to Lynn! After much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the layout & black/white color combo, but I used different images & dies, added an embossed strip instead of the herringbone & added a touch of red.
My CAS card started w/ stamping the white cat, masking her & stamping the gray cat. I did a little out of the box to avoid cutting of the kitties’ tails when die cutting them. I added a narrow silver glitter border then a larger red one. The black strip was embossed w/ a tiny heart folder & I added more silver glitter strips on either side.
Here are the Copics I used:
