    What a wonderful color combo we have this week for the Splitcoast Color Challenge (CC463)! Peggy chose Tangerine, Saffron & Coastal Cabana! And I went with dessert using a wooden shape. I know I have a baggie of those cute little wooden things, but all I could find was a bag of wooden buttons that had this little heart in it so that’s what I used 🙂

    I sponged on the distress inks then stamped the two silhouette images. I lined up where the images would be on the front of my white card, and stamped them again so it looks like they go from the card to the sponged panel. I don’t know why, but I trimmed off a couple of strips from the right side but only added the narrowest back on, a little apart from the main panel.

    The die cut oval sentiment was added along w/ the wooden heart. A few highlights were added with a white gel pen.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

  • Heart Flower Jar

    I     was so inspired by Doni’s gallery I made a second, very quick card for the Featured Stamper this week (FS364). This time I cased THIS card of Doni’s. I kept the layout and all the white space, but I used different images, different colors and made mine a Valentine instead of get well.

    I stamped the jar, masking out the top, then stamped the heart flowers inside. After coloring with Copics, I added the ribbon like Doni did, but my greeting was smaller so I put it on a separate little strip and used a corner rounder on one end. I added some little rhinestones just ’cause I still get a little worried about all the white space 🙂

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

  • Joy in a Jar

    A big CONGRATS to Doni, the newest Featured Stamper (FS364) on Splitcoast! What a fantabulous gallery she has and I wish I could do CAS (clean & simple) as well as Doni. Believe it or not, I cased THIS card of hers. I loved the image cut out and on top of the pennant flag. Well, we all know how “stuff” happens…and it morphed. I kept the flag but since I turned it sideways I had to move the image more off of the flag to keep it balanced. I also changed the colors and added sequins, just ’cause.

    After stamping the Joy in a Jar image once on white and again on a dotted yellow piece of dp, I die cut the white image and used a 1″ circle punch for the yellow circle and a die for the navy circle. The apothecary jar was also stamped onto navy (very hard to see here), die cut w/ the matching die and the label was added on top. Some narrow white ribbon was colored w/ yellow Copics  and added to the jar. HINT: I also used a Prussian blue Copic marker to color a few lt blue sequins to match (it works!). The flag was die cut and the little narrow yellow strip is a cut off piece (the paper is double sided) so I placed it across the flag and added a fussy cut little image. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

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