Sympathy Sketch

BEST OF 2013 – CAS

A wonderful color combo today on the Color Challenge on Splitcoast (CC412). I need to use more often! And a sad farewell to Julia as a CC hostess 🙁 I tried to do a Clean & Classy card ala Julia, but not sure if I succeeded or not. I also used a sketch from a good while back that I hadn’t tried (SC336).

The images are from DRS Designs. I stamped the long berry branch and used a long rectangle die to cut it in sections so I could stamp the sentiment in between. It looked a bit plain so I used an embossing border down the other side. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: DRS Designs – With Sympathy, Simple Berry Branch

Paper: vanilla, black, kraft

Ink: Memento tuxedo black

Accessories: Spellbinders long rectangle dies, Cuttlebug Charles embossing folder, Copic markers

Sympathy Lily

A big Congrats to Janette, the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS313)! What a super gallery and after much browsing, I chose her Watercolored Lily to case. I kept the colors and lily as a main image, but I used different images, die cut my layers and changed the layout a bit.

The images are from DRS Designs. I stamped the Calla Lily Sympathy once on my main panel and the only the lily image again on a separate piece. I added some color using Copic markers and cut the extra lily out to attach to the base lily. I used a Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle for the lily panel and I used a larger Resplendent Rectangle for the light green layer. I resized this layer using a technique I call Nestie Resizing in order to make it a little shorter in length. The sentiment was stamped across the bottom of the darker green panel before I attached to my 4.25 5.50 card and added a bow I made using a mini Bowdabra.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Congrats again, Janette and enjoy your week!

Love You More

For today’s Technique Challenge on Splitcoast (TLC413), the focus is on the dies. I think I have just the CAS (clean & simple) card that will fit. Turns out the only heart dies I have are these huge solid and LaRue heart from Memory Box. They pretty much take up the whole card so they have to be the focus. I thought they went well w/ this cute Love You More greeting from DRS Designs. I added a couple of little hearts from the Interlocking Hearts Background beside it. I colored and cut out just the bloom from the Single Rose and attached it in the upper left. I used a pair of mini scallop scissors across the bottom of the red panel and attached it to my 4.25 x 5.50 card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: DRS Designs – Love You More, Interlocking Hearts Background, Single Rose

Paper: Neenah white, red

Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Colorbox lipstick red fluid chalk

Accessories: Memory Box Grand Heart & LaRue Heart dies, mini scallop scissors, Copic markers
