Neon Treat

Posted on September 7, 2013 9:52 PM by Julie 1 Comment

A big Congrats to Julie (Humma), the Featured Stamper (FS344) on Splitcoast! She has such a fabulous gallery and I chose THIS card of hers to case. I kept the 4 block layout and bright colors but I used different images, added some faux stitching and made mine a Halloween card.

The image is from DRS Designs and I just love it! I thought it would be fun to use fluorescent Copic markers on it. After stamping and coloring it, I used a rectangle die to cut it. I had some small scraps of neon yellow/green & orange so I incorporated them into a color blocked background along w/ the black card stock. The faux stitching was done with a black micron and a neon orange gel pen. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25. These are the Copics & Sharpies (Sharpie has a neon set, too!) I used to color it.

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

Supplies:

Stamps: DRS Designs –Trick or Treat Squares

Paper: white. black, neon yellow/green & orange

Ink: Memento tuxedo black

Accessories: Spellbinders rectangle dies, Copic markers, neon Sharpies, neon gel pen, black micron pen

For today’s Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT439), the challenge is to make your own background using stamps. My background was made using a fun splatter image w/ grape ink and a snowflake background using white ink. I also added a few of the white snowflakes to the top of my main image and stamped the tree line greeting with boysenberry ink. A few snow dots & a white line under the trees were added w/ a white gel pen. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

A Man Thing

For the Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT426), the topic is Discover! Use or try something new. For me, it was both…I used 2 new embossing folders AND I tried something new to me…embossing on duct tape.

I’ll bet most of you know or are related to someone described by this card. For me, it’s my brother in law. The guy lives for duct tape and bungee cords as a fix all for everything. He also has a lot of old cars. Not antiques…just old, and at least one should have been put out of its misery a long time ago. One year for Christmas, I gave him a new set of bungee cords. This was after my sis opened the hood of the old clunker (car, not brother in law, lol) and showed me how he had a bungee cord holding the accelerator cable. With raised eyebrows I just said “Really?” Then made sure sis was not the one driving the bungee mobile. When I found out he planed on doing some rewiring, I sent my hubby over (he actually KNOWS about wiring). I told him she is my only sis and I would not be happy if brother in law burned down their house.

The images are all from DRS Designs. So for my Man Thing card, I wanted to use duct tape, but could only find some dark almost black duct tape around here, so I used some foil tape (don’t know what it’s used for but it’s in the home improvement section) and stuck it to a piece of card stock and embossed it. I used some lg deckle scissors on the ends of the Man Thing part to look more like torn duct tape. The tool border was colored w/ Copics and I just happened to have a tool bg embossing folder to finish it off. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
