Spring Bike Ride

Posted on March 12, 2022 11:20 AM by Julie Comment

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC849), we’re visiting a company called Babasouk & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS lovely picture.

For my spring slimline, I stamped, colored & fussy cut the bike, then sponged the background sky, grass & sun. I used some little flower images from the Woodlands set to ad the row of flowers. The picket fence was die cut & since it’s an A2 size, I didn’t cut all the way to the end, moved the die down, matching up the pickets, & cut the rest of the way, effectively adding almost another length of fence. A lt gray Copic was used to add some dimension to the fence. A couple of sections of grass were added; 1 behind the fence & 1 in front. The cloud edges were lightly sponged & added across the top.

Here are the Copics I used:

Spring Frame

A big congrats to Nancy, the newest Featured Stamper (FS787) on Splitcoast! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the birds/leaves theme but used different dies, slightly different colors & made mine a Spring card.

My card is fairly simple..I die cut everything, lol. The birdhouse is popped up, as is the leaf frame & Spring word. I actually put the Spring word w/ the shadow back into the space it was cut from to give it a slightly embedded look. Stickles was added to the flower centers & inside the heart on the birdhouse.

I did trim down the green leaf frame a bit in order to have a little show around the edges. Sorry, I think the tiny flowers die is out of stock right now, but please check back.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Birthday Again

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC848), & we’re visiting a site called Desire to Inspire & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS to inspire my card.

For my card, I started by generously swiping the 2 Distress inks across piece of white card stock. I first coated the entire piece w/ the raspberry, then came in w/ the violet from the bottom. It was heat set to dry the heavy ink application. The Rose Bg Strip image was stamped on top of the color w/ Versamark & heat embossed w/ clear powder. The embossing was to keep the color under the images, as is. I placed this panel, face up on the bottom plate of my embossing machine, spritzed it w/ water, then placed a blank white piece of c/s on top. Then I placed the top plate on it & ran it thru the machine. The first time I did this, the color went all over my bottom plate so the next time, I put it all inside a folded piece of copy paper.

Here is what the process looks like. First pic is before the image was heat embossed onto the inked bg.

Second pic is after misting & running thru the die cut machine w/ a blank piece of c/s on top. The color is lighter on the original (right side) because it transferred to the blank piece. The color stayed dark under the clear embossing & this embossing left the negative (white) image on the piece on the left. I’ll save this one for another project.

The two flowers were stamped, colored w/ Copics & die cut w/ their coordinating dies. I used a new label die for the greeting & added some gold rhinestones to the flower centers.

These are the Copics I used for the flowers:
