Swan Heart

Posted on May 17, 2019 9:32 PM by Julie 1 Comment

For the Inspiration Challenge, we’re heading to Country Living and I was inspired by THIS picture. I liked the blue bg w/ the white flowers but I switched out the rain boots for a pair of swans.

I started by using my Misti to stamp the swan several times onto a piece of blank rubber, then I stamped it onto the card stock. Then I stamped the regular one in front of it. I added just a bit of color to them then fussy cut them. For the background, I die cut the flower heart, then put it back into the opening & added a lt blue layer behind.

Here’s the inside.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: DRS Designs: Swan, Life Together Happiness (inside: Special Day Greeting, Wedding Ring Ensemble, Heart Drops)

Paper: Staples 110# white, lt blue

Swing from a Star

A big congrats to Angie, the newest Featured Stamper (FS635) on Splitcoast! She has a beautiful gallery & I chose THIS to case, mainly because I have the same image. Since I did use the same image, I changed most everything else..the colors, dies & layout.

My card started with a Brusho background I made ages ago. It’s sort of how I imagine deep space would look & thought it would look good behind this happy little girl, who’s in her own little world, blissfully swinging from a star. Remember that feeling, as if you’re flying? I put her in my Misti, stamped, colored her w/ Copics then overstamped her. I stamped the greeting on a circle die cut & added a narrow frame. The stars were die cut out of white glitter paper.

Below is the inside, using leftovers from the front & next to it are the Copics I used.

This is for another Dare to Get Dirty Challenge. For all the details of the DTGD challenges, go HERE…but you’ll need to be a Fan Club member.

I finally finished a background I could live with for Lydia’s DTGD challenge. There are still several fails hanging around. And since the Free for All Challenge on Friday was birds, I colored this digi image & added it along w/ a greeting stamped on a chat bubble die cut.
Here’s the inside & the Copics I used for the bird.

Supplies:

Stamps: From the Heart Stamps – Innertube Birdbrain (digital), Serendipity Stamps –Uplifting Words (inside: Serendipity Stamps: Sending Smiles )

Paper: Staples 110# white, water color

Ink:Memento tuxedo black, Versafine Clair nocturne

Accessories: Lil’ Inker stitched rectangles dies, MFT stitched arch dies, watercolors, fine tip sharpie, Penny Black chat bubbles dies, clear sequins

This was for another DTGD Challenge, the Color Challenge & also the Fan Club Christmas Challenge.

I used Copic markers & a gold Krylon on glossy paper to make my bg layer & the poinsettia petals. The greeting was stamped onto the brushed gold w/ the warm violet ink & heat embossed w/ a transparent sparkly powder. Then all I did was put it all together.
Here’s the inside.

Supplies:

Paper: white glossy, brushed gold
