It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS808) this week. So a big congrats to Kristin! She has a lovely, growing gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the window scene, but used images instead of dies, different colors & made mine a Christmas card. 

After stamping & die cutting my images, I used a snow stencil & some arctic blue ink to sponge in the background. I also added a little of the same stencil inside the window then added some stickles to the snowflakes.

Here are the Copics I used:

For the  Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC869), we’re visiting Garden Collage where I found THIS picture. The palm trees got me started on my Christmas card, but I replaced the van w/ Santa.

For my mini slimline card, I colored & die cut Santa & all the palm trees. On the background, I picked an area for the water then used the 2 blue-green inks and a wavy stencil. To get a little variation, I also sponged on a bit of white ink thru the stencil. The stitched hills were die cut & sponged w/ mocha ink then added for the sand. The lt blue ink & a cloud stencil was used in the sky area. The greeting was stamped, all the pieces attached & I added a couple of seagulls to finish it.

Here are the Copics I used. The first one was for Santa & the second was the palm trees.

A big congrats to Cheryl, the newest Featured Stamper (FS807) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept most of the colors & trio of images, but I rearranged them, turned mine vertical & made it a Christmas card.

After stamping, coloring & die cutting the cute snowmen, I die cut the sm polaroid frames & backed them w/ red or green. The snowflakes were stamped w/ white ink before the snowmen were added. A greeting circle was added along w/ some holly on the frames.
