Plant Window

Posted on March 27, 2020 10:01 PM by Julie Comment

We have a very colorful sock site, called Joy of Socks, for our Inspiration Challenge (IC747). I chose THIS pair of socks for my inspiration. Good thing I kept the pic, because the socks have been removed from the site!

For my get well card, I die cut the various succulents out of teal, lime & scraps of watercolored paper then die cut the white pots. I wanted a large window, so I used my die resizing technique to make the (original window is only 4 panes) window half again wider & longer. I’m not gonna lie..it was a little tricky but it worked. The valance was cut using a curved border die & fun orangey-red paper. Another, subtle print was added behind the window & I popped the whole thing up just a tad w/ cardboard. I wanted a little pop of color, so I added some little red flowers to a couple of the plants.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Keep safe & be well!

Christmas Gnomes

X2!

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS663) this week, so a big Congrats to Claudette! I chose THIS card to case. I kept the four pane window design, but I used different stamps & dies & made mine a Christmas card.

My card started w/ the die cut 4 pane window frame. I used it to pencil in the position of the gnomes on a piece of X-Press It then stamped & colored them. For the 2 gnomes who have feet &/or hands out of the box, I made a couple extra & fussy cut those parts to add on top. I placed the 4 pane die onto the gnomes & cut them so they’d have the stitching, too. When it was all put together, I added a piece of thin fun foam behind the whole panel to pop it up a bit, then added the die cut holly.

Here are the Copics I used.

Welcome to October & to the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club October Christmas Challenge! You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Bet you’re wondering what the challenge theme is..I’d love to tell you but you’ll have to go see for yourself.

My card is all on one layer, so there was a little masking going on. I started by stamping & coloring Leonard, then I masked him & stamped the pine bough to resemble a little Charlie Brown Christmas tree & added a few ornaments. I die cut the window then used a reverse mask of it to stamp the North Pole & reindeer. The snow bg was stamped w/ the tumbled glass. I thought it needed something so I stamped part of the light string on the top of the window then added stickles to the lightbulbs & snowflakes. I did a little cutting around the top of Leonard in order to insert the corner of the window frame underneath him.

Here are the Copics I used.
