    A big Congrats to Janette, the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS313)! What  a super gallery and after much browsing, I chose her Watercolored Lily to case. I kept the colors and lily as a main image, but I used different images, die cut my layers and changed the layout a bit.

    The images are from DRS Designs. I stamped the Calla Lily Sympathy once on my main panel and the only the lily image again on a separate piece. I added some color using Copic markers and cut the extra lily out to attach to the base lily. I used a Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle for the lily panel and I used a larger Resplendent Rectangle for the light green layer. I resized this layer using a technique I call Nestie Resizing in order to make it a little shorter in length. The sentiment was stamped across the bottom of the darker green panel before I attached to my 4.25 5.50 card and added a bow I made using a mini Bowdabra.

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

    CAS-Favorite
    For today’s Technique Challenge on Splitcoast (TLC413), the focus is on the dies. I think I have just the CAS (clean & simple) card that will fit. Turns out the only heart dies I have are these huge solid and LaRue heart from Memory Box. They pretty much take up the whole card so they have to be the focus. I thought they went well w/ this cute Love You More greeting from DRS Designs. I added a couple of little hearts from the Interlocking Hearts Background beside it.  I colored and cut out just the bloom from the Single Rose and attached it in the upper left. I used a pair of mini scallop scissors across the bottom of the red panel and attached it to my 4.25 x 5.50 card.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    For my birthday card, I used the new Special Boy set. I figured this set was about as masculine as they get and works well for big boys as well as little boys. I made the background for the largest layer and truck image by swiping various colors of Copic markers across a piece of vanilla card stock. Then the truck image and tire tracks were stamped on top of these using the dk brown chalk ink. I fussy cut the truck and attached it to a deckled rectangle of vanilla to give it a bit of separation. The metallic bronze layer was embossed w/ a Sizzix folder and the sentiment was die cut and attached to a leftover strip of the background with small bronze brads. Since I wanted to have crossed checkered flags, I stamped one as usual and stamped one again on the plastic sheet of my SAMJ (stamp-a-ma-jig) then quickly pressed a piece of vanilla c/s on top to get the reverse image.

    Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy Birthday, Rick!
