    Believe it or not, but this IS the sketch from today’s challenge on Splitcoast (SC375)! It just got a little covered up. My circle had to be bigger and then I added the fussy cut dogwoods and poof! The horizontal and vertical bands mostly disappeared.

    The images are all from DRS Designs and the Hope quote and dogwoods are a sneak peek of new images to be released on Sat. 3/10/12. I’m really loving these dogwoods! Here I stamped them in lightning black and very quickly added just a hint of shading w/ two markers then cut them out. I know, I know…most people don’t care for the fussy cutting, but I like it, lol. And I’ve gotten really quick with it. It took me about 7 or 8 min. to cut out the 3 bunches of dogwoods.

    For the quote circle, I stamped the stained glass image w/ the lightning black then stamped the quote over it w/ black before die cutting it. The little left over crescent moon shape is what was left and I kinda liked it so I added some sponged on gold leafing and put it back.

    The strips were stamped w/ the stained glass image and the gold ink and a solid strip added on top. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Congrats to Kathy! Today’s Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS262)! I picked This to case. I kept the layout but I made mine a bday instead of Christmas, used different images and moved the ribbon.

    The images are all from DRS Designs. I also used a technique from the Technique Junkies Dec 2011 newsletter   (you’ll have to be a TJ member to see it) called Curvy Borders for the black layer around the flowers. The flowers were stamped on w/c paper, colored w/ markers and cut out. I attached them to a white Spellbinders Mega Oval die cut and used the Curvy Borders technique w/ the Banner Basics 2 die cuts to frame it.

    The black polka dots were black embossed down the side of the next panel and I added a red polka dot ribbon across the middle before attaching another of the Banner die cuts behind the right side. The sentiment is a partial of a much longer image and I used a SAMJ to position the words before black embossing and die cutting w/ a Spellbinders circle. The red button was dotted using a black Permapaque marker and the finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Since we’re doing (mostly) blue cards today, mine showcases this wonderful Sunflower image done in blues w/ a little coral for an accent color. I think I’ve said this before but I try not to let reality get in the way of how I color things. You’ll probably never see a sunflower this color in real life, but I like it! And because I love a good contrast, I paired the shades of blue w/ a nice corally-orange dot paper. A big scallop die was used on the bottom strips and the 2 shades of blue paper are actually the flip sides of one sheet of textured c/s. I used a pennant die for the sentiment, added a little twine bow and some beautiful little Swarovski crystals. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

    Here are the Tombow markers I used to color my sunflower and the ink I used to stamp the images. Julie Warner - justwritedesigns https://thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com/

    And last but not least, is my notebook page along with supplies I used. If you haven’t tried the Picksey Pick Ups, they are fabulous! Makes working w/ those little crystals an absolute breeze!
