The Write Stuff

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS802) & a big congrats to Maggie! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the 3 windows & the sunny yellow & bright pink colors, but used different images & dies & made mine a slimline card w/ a stenciled bg.

For my summer card, I used a sunburst stencil & a couple of yellow inks to sponge in the sun rays. Since the stencil is a 6″square, I had to move it to cover the entire front. I used a reverse circle mask to sponge in the center of the sun. The penguins were stamped, colored & die cut then arranged on top of the blue waves I cut to go behind the yellow window frame. The greeting was stamped in the center window.

Here are the Copics I used:

A big congrats to Ona, the newest Featured Stamper! She has an amazing gallery of scrapbook pgs & after much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I kept the colors & layout, but used stamps & dies & changed it from a page layout to an A2 card.

After stamping the girl & greeting, I colored & die cut it, backing it w/ a narrow layer of lt yellow. The cobalt bg was die cut w/ a piercing die. To make it show up even more, I backed it w/ a layer of cardstock covered w/ aluminum foil. It really catches the light nicely.

A big congrats to Faye, the newest Featured Stamper (FS800) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the clean layout & purple flowers but used a stamp/stencil combo instead of a die cut & added a frame & an extra layer.

For my card, I put the image outline in my Misti & stamped it w/ black. Then used the coordinating layered stencil to sponge in the colors. The greeting was stamped along side & I used a clear Wink of Stella pen on some areas of the flowers. The main panel is popped up a bit & I used a black marker to add just a tiny edge around it.

Here are the inks I used (I forgot to put them in the topmost picture).
