Hope to See You

Posted on May 4, 2024 10:14 PM by Julie Comment

Pretty ruffled flowers to brighten a special someone’s day and let them know they’re missed. A beautiful new floral set with matching dies.

We have a special Featured Stamper Challenge to celebrate the 900th Challenge! Your choice of any of the last 100. I chose THIS card by Betty (aka Sweet Irene FS868). I liked the flowers around the frame so I kept that, but I used stamped & colored flowers instead of die cut flowers. I also used different colors & instead of having an inset frame, mine is stacked layers.

The ruffled flowers were colored w/ Copics & die cut w/ their coordinating dies. I die cut three stitched layers in decreasing sizes. The Hope part has a matching die (love this!) & the rest of the greeting was stamped in the lower right corner.

The Hope word was popped up above everything.
These are the Copics I used: (in case you’re wondering about the B’s & BV, there were used to underpaint the leaves & flowers in the shadows.)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Books & Flowers

Are you a book lover or know someone who is? This could be the card for them. A stack of beautiful books under a shelf of flowers. All against a quilted cover background. The dies make it easy to customize the colors.

t’s my turn to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC961) and we are headed to A Cup of Needles & their Pinterest Board where I saw THIS lovely embroidery piece.

After die cutting the books out of several different colors, I put them all together. I used some of the same lavender & purple colors for the flowers. The vase & shelf were cut out of an ivory color. I wanted them to be a little different from the white background but not so much that they took over. The flowers and leaves were shaped a bit before i attached them. I love how the holes in the quilted background cover let a bit of the purple backing show through.The greeting was stamped onto a small wood plank, just the right size for it.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thinking of You

Posted on April 26, 2024 10:11 PM by Julie Comment

A clean, colorful, easy to make card for any number of occasions. The stamps have matching dies & I’m really loving this woodplank cover die. Use it plain white or inked for totally different look.

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC960), we are visiting Daily Paintworks & their Pinterest Boards where I found THIS picture to inspire me.

My card is pretty simple. I die cut the large wood plank panel then used brushes to add the green ink & a little of the blue-green, then used the blue green to rub directly over the top to darken all the raised areas. A smaller white panel was die cut a few times. First w/ the larger die, then a smaller one (to create the white frame) and finally an even smaller die to create the rectangle inset. I placed this in the center of the wood plank die & ran it thru the die cut machine. The branches were all colored & die cut & I used the individual wood plank set to cut the piece for the greeting before stamping on it.

Here are the Copics I used:
