  • Heart Flowers

    For my field of Heart Flowers, I stamped the grass across the front of a vanilla panel. The various hearts were stamped, cut out and popped up on top of the blades of grass. I added a little color to some areas of the hearts using a combination of Tombow markers and Prismacolor pencils. I already had this dp from Cosmo Cricket picked out and it turned out to  be a really tough color of red to match. The only way I could come close was using both the markers and pencils.  I added some little crystals on top of the hearts. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

    And here’s the page from my notebook. Can’t tell you how many different red inks I tried before deciding the lipstick red chalk ink came the closest.

    Best of 2012 -SPLITCOASTSTAMPERS!

    For my winter card, I used this wonderful Tree Branch and stamped it with indigo ink on the slate blue c/s. I shaded it just a bit using Tombow markers and added snow with a white gel pen. The two sizes of Flurry snowflakes were stamped in indigo and also denim inks. I added a few of the smaller flakes stamped and embossed with white embossing powder. More highlights were added with the white gel pen and the centers dotted with a Viva Decor Pearl Pen.

    The greeting was also white embossed on a gold flecked navy piece of c/s. I attached it on top of a sentiment frame and colored in the dots. The finished card is 6.50 x 5.00.

    Just for fun, I thought I’d show you my color inspiration for this challenge. I had this snowflake dp and while I was hunting for c/s to go with it, I found this Martha Stewart paint chip in my stash and those are the colors I used. This is a page in my little 9.5 x 7 notebook.  I keep little leftover paper and ribbon swatches and bare bones notes on the card. It helps me remember what I did and what I used. I don’t know how many of these I’ve gone through, but they’ve really come in handy plenty of times and I don’t have to guess what I used.

    I’m using some pretty spring images and colors for my card today. The colors in this dp are my favorite colors so I matched the colors in my images to them. The vase and flowers were cut out and added on top of some white c/s that I stamped the dots in two different colors. First I inked and stamped w/ the lime ink, then inked w/ the neptune and used a SAMJ to align the second stamping in an alternate row. A lg corner rounder was used on the two right corners. The scallop scissors didn’t match up exactly w/ the scallop border, but I think it looks fine as is. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.
    Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you’ll join us in our Monday Challenge and please visit all the Outlines Design Team for details on their creations.
