North Coast Creations November Release!

Posted on November 9, 2016 7:58 AM by Julie 3 Comments

Welcome to the North Coast Creations November Release! We have some really cute new Christmas images & a matching Reindeer die this month! You are really going to love these for your Christmas card making.

On my Santa Star card, I decided to make it into a shaker card. I really love shakers & I think they add a little something extra & kids love them. The shaker on this was made using a cellophane pouch I made out of a little envelope that embellishments come in. There’s not a lot of depth or bulk to it so it’s definitely mailable.

After die cutting the white top panel w/ the Double Stitched Rectangles, I positioned the largest Double Stitched Star die at an angle toward the top. The largest Sparkling Star die was used to cut the red frame behind it & I used the smallest star dies to die cut all the sparkly stars I put inside the shaker. After sealing it, I attached it behind the star opening & added a thin foam sheet under it give it a bit of room. I added a green paper star behind it before I attached it all to the striped paper. Santa was colored w/ Copics & fussy cut. The greeting was stamped on another star & the glittery presents added beside Santa.

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

Supplies:

Stamps: North Coast Creations – Ho Ho Ho (retired)

Paper: X-Press It white, Staples 110# white, dp (Pebbles -Welcome Christmas, DCWV -Christmas Collection)

Accessories: ODBD Double Stitched Rectangles, Pierced Rectangles, Double Stitched Stars, Sparkling Stars, Celebrate & Wish (retired) dies, Copic markers, Misti, sequins, WeR Memory Keepers Fuse Tool, foam sheet

For my Rudolph card, after stamping & coloring him, he was die cut w/ the matching die. I found some paper in my stash that had a row of little red nosed reindeer on it so I cut just that strip & found some other papers that coordinated w/ it. The greeting was stamped on a Stitched Oval & backed w/ a plain Oval & I thought it needed a little something extra so I die cut the stars using the Splendorous Stars & Shining Star dies.

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

Dino Shaker

Posted on October 15, 2016 9:34 PM by Julie Comment

A big congrats to Dayanna, the newest Featured Stamper (FS506) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & after much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I love the cute little Koala & the shaker element so I kept those. I made mine a dinosaur by using different images, different colors & I also used a die cut as part of the greeting.

To make my Dino Shaker, I stamped, colored & die cut the cut little dinosaur. The top white panel was also die cut w/ a pierced rectangle then I used a double stitched circle die to cut out the shaker part. After die cutting the pink & purple layers, I lined them up & cut the slightly smaller circle into the pink layer. I used the fuse tool to make a shaker pouch using a small plastic bag that sequins came in, put some color coordinated sequins in it, then sealed it. A thin foam layer was also die cut & put behind the pink layer to give the shaker some room.

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

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Howdy Star Shaker

Posted on August 20, 2016 10:05 PM by Julie 1 Comment

A big congrats to Donna, the newest Featured Stamper (FS498) on Splitcoast! I didn’t have to go far to find THIS card to case (copy & share everything). I kept the shaker card & most of the colors & layout, but I used different images, a star shaped shaker instead of a round one, & used a cowboy/southwest theme on mine.

For my star shaker, I started by stamping the cowboy/cowgirl accessories image, coloring w/ Copics, then I did a little into the window to keep from cutting off the top of the boots when I die cut the stitched star opening. I made a larger star shaped pouch out of a page protector, sealed the edges but leaving one edge open, filled it w/ sequins, stars & little punched cowboy boots, then sealed the remaining edge. After attaching the shaker pouch behind the opening, I added foam tape all behind the panel & attached it to another white back panel. A couple of narrow frames (one brown, one turquoise) were added behind it before attaching to the card. The Howdy was die cut & I used some of the same Copics to color it to match.

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

Thanks so much for stopping by!
