Holiday Blue

Posted on December 7, 2019 10:48 PM by Julie Comment

Congrats to Nancy, the newest Featured Stamper (FS670) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & after much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the angular layout w/ the decoration but I used different images, dies, colors & made mine a Christmas card.

My card is pretty simple & didn’t take much time. I put the winter words bg into my Misti, then stamped w/ white ink & white embossed it. Then you know, put it back into the Misti & rinse, repeat as the shampoo instructions go. (Do we really NEED instructions on shampoo??) Anyway, the top white layer was die cut & I turned a double stitch rectangle on an angle & cut out the V. Die cut all the poinsettia petals, glued them together & added half of the greeting.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Silver Wreath

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge this week & we’re headed to a lovely site that also has an awesome Pinterest Board..Mackenzie-Childs. For my card, I was inspired by THIS wreath.
I really loved the gorgeous wreath so I went for a totally silver & white combo. I wanted a bigger wreath circle than the one in the wreath set, so I used a couple of circle dies for my wreath base. I die cut all the ‘greenery’ & sm. snowflake out of metallic silver &/or silver glitter papers. The poinsettias were die cut out of white glitter paper & the 3 little cardinals out of silver mirror paper. I used some thin silver cord to twine around the wreath & made a loopy bow for the top of the wreath. The greeting is from a large frame greeting, but I didn’t ink the frame part. Since my wreath is good size, the card is also. It measures 6.5 x 5 so it fits in an A7 envelope. The white bg also is larger than the A2 sized rectangle die so I had to use my die resizing/extending technique to make it larger. I thought the sides looked a little bare so I added a couple of strips of silver mirror paper to each side.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Holiday Cabin

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS660) this week! A big congrats to Rebekah as the newest Featured Stamper! I chose THIS card to case. I kept the Christmas theme & layout, but I used different stamps, different dies & left off an embossed layer.

Except for the greeting, my card is all die cuts. I used white glitter paper for the roof of the cabin, the snow hills & little round snowflakes. After I cut the snow hills, I stuck them together & cut them in the shape of the white oval layer. The trees were cut w/ a couple of greens & I added stickles to them. For the largest layer & scallop oval layer, I used some old Cricut Christmas paper. The poinsettia was die cut out of watercolor paper & I used Brushes & a paintbrush to add the color to the petals & leaves.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
