Congrats to Carla, the newest Featured Stamper (FS483) on Splitcoast! She has such a fun gallery & I chose THIS to case. I kept the mustache & neutral colors, but used punches & dies instead of images & added an embossed bg.

I started w/ a large white stitched circle & added the die cut glasses & punched stache & bow tie. I punched a couple of extra staches to use as hair on top of the head & on the bow tie I added some lines w/ a white Prismacolor pencil. He’s attached to large lt gray panel where I stamped the greeting across the bottom & added some blue wiggle eyes inside the glasses.

Congrats again, Carla! Thanks so much for stopping by!

The theme for the Clean & Simple (CAS375) Challenge on Splitcoast is Wedding/Anniversary. I had some rich red strips left over from something & a white die flower panel so I put the two together. I die cut them using some stitched rectangles & stitched circles.

I had to do 1 side at a time & move the stitched rectangle die in to get the narrow white strip. The largest red panel already had a circle cut out of it & I just made it a little bigger using the stitched circle die. The leftover little half circle is from the strip on the inside. The white flower panel was attached on top & under the red panel & I used some foam tape strips to add some dimension behind it.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Stamps: DRS Designs- Special Day Greeting, (inside –Silhouette Bride & Groom)

Paper: Staples white, Neenah white, rich red

Ink: Versafine onyx (also crimson on inside)

Sunshine Balloons

A big congrats to Barbara, the newest Featured Stamper (FS480) on Splitcoast! She has such a fun, colorful gallery. I chose THIS to case. I kept the same layout w/ the layered square, but I used different images, different colors & changed it from a Christmas card to a birthday card.

I put the balloon in my Misti, stamped w/ Memento, colored w/ Copics then over stamped w/ Versafine. I also did 1 extra center section for both balloons to pop up. I already had the stitched white square so I die cut a slightly larger black layer for it & used a piercing tool to add the little windy swirls (for the TLC581) around the balloons.

For the background, I sponged the blue from the upper left corner in & the orange from the lower right in, directly on the card front. Yikes! I hardly EVER do that..I can count on 1 hand how many times I colored or stamped directly on a card front, & have fingers left over! I’m such a klutz, it’s like a recipe for disaster w/ me. But somehow, I lucked out this time & even managed to stamp the greeting w/o totally flubbing it. I just kept telling myself, “it’s only paper, it’s only paper”.

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

Congrats again, Barbara! Thanks so much for stopping by!
