Give Thanks

Posted on November 4, 2017 11:30 PM by Julie Comment

A big Congrats to Cathie, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS561)! She has a beautiful, growing little gallery & I chose THIS to case. I kept the Thanksgiving theme & used similar colors, but I used a different layout, different images & used embossing resist as my technique.

My card is pretty quick & easy. I started by stamping & embossing the two leaves in white across mostly the top & left side. I had to do just a little masking. Then I sponged on Distress oxide & regular inks & blended them toward the bottom. After die cutting, I turned the thin layer upside down & put it back then stamped the greeting w/ the Versafine. A single embossed, sponged & fussy cut leaf was added on top.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Gold Pumpkin

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper Challenge (FS560)! A big congrats to Jennie, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a big, beautiful gallery & after much browsing, I settled on THIS to case. I kept the pumpkin & Thanksgiving theme but used different images, a little different layout & only a strip of dry embossing instead of a full bg.
For my gold pumpkin card today, I gold embossed this lovely Filigree Pumpkin onto ivory c/s then die cut it & added a gold pierced circle layer behind it. The square panel behind them is a small bg I made w/ Distress oxide inks & stamped over it w/ gold ink using the Splatter Bg. The larger ivory layer has the greeting gold embossed & I also added a little gold embossing all around the edges. The long rust color strip was a leftover that I dry embossed w/ an embossing folder.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Harvest Moon

Posted on August 26, 2017 11:40 AM by Julie Comment

For today’s Inspiration Challenge (IC612) on Splitcoast, I was inspired by THIS picture. I wish I had an image of Snoopy but I don’t. But it reminded me of this tree & the pile of leaves images I have so I used them.

To make my fall card, I sponged distress inks onto white c/s then stamped the tree & added some white highlights. The moon part was stamped on a separate piece of white & fussy cut. I added a thin white & a wider black layer then attached a white frame on top. The greeting was stamped across the bottom ( I forgot it was retired, but I still like it:) The pile of leaves was fussy cut & I added a couple of little punched pumpkins.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
