Easter Ducks

Posted on March 23, 2018 9:19 PM by Julie 1 Comment

Such a cute site for the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC642)!After a lot of browsing, I chose THIS for my inspiration. I liked the sweet little duck & all the Easter eggs & I needed an Easter card so it was perfect.

For my Easter card today, the baby ducks were stamped, colored & die cut, and I had to do a little out of the box on the grass along the way. The large green bg started out white but I sponged Distress & Distress oxide inks onto it, splattered it & also stamped the Splatter Bg on it in blues, greens & finally white. The white splatter was heat embossed w/ white powder & I left an area at the bottom w/o too much on it so I could add the greeting. I was going for that speckled egg look on the bg.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

For my typewriter card, I knew I wanted to watercolor this wonderful, vintage image, so I put it into my Misti & stamped it w/ Versafine onto watercolor paper. I added a water glaze on the areas I wanted to color then dropped in the different colors one at a time. The colors are a little different, but I like the way they blend into each other. When it dried, I went back & added more color in areas & added shadows. Then I over stamped it to sharpen up the details. I added a white linen frame & only used part of the greeting.

Here’s the inside.

Spring Flower Mail

Posted on March 20, 2018 10:25 AM by Julie Comment

Just a quick card for the Color Challenge (CC679) on Splitcoast today. The little flower image was colored w/ Copics then die cut into a square along w/ the yellow square behind it. The large yellow bg was heat embossed w/ white powder using a bigger daisy image.

For the blue layer, I die cut it into a square then used a postage stamp die to emboss it. A little yellow flower border was die cut & added down the side w/ some white brad centers.

Here are the Copics I used.
