    For today’s Technique Challenge on Splitcoast (TLC413), the focus is on the dies. I think I have just the CAS (clean & simple) card that will fit. Turns out the only heart dies I have are these huge solid and LaRue heart from Memory Box. They pretty much take up the whole card so they have to be the focus. I thought they went well w/ this cute Love You More greeting from DRS Designs. I added a couple of little hearts from the Interlocking Hearts Background beside it.  I colored and cut out just the bloom from the Single Rose and attached it in the upper left. I used a pair of mini scallop scissors across the bottom of the red panel and attached it to my 4.25 x 5.50 card.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Weekly-FavoriteA big CONGRATS to Lynn (aka allee’s), the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS310)!! This is well deserved and a long time coming! Lynn is a big participant in the daily challenges and a gallery favorite. Y’all will love her big, fabulous gallery. For my card, I chose THIS wonderful card of Lynn’s to case.  I love the masked strip and silhouette image so I kept those. I changed the images, added a horizontal sponged line (because it looked like my little boy was sitting on top of the water) and added an extra layer. I rarely work on the card front…for me, that’s just asking for trouble. Yeah, like I need more trouble, lol.

    The images are all from Our Daily Bread designs. The silhouette and greeting are new, from a set called Little Boys. The large cattails are from the With Heartfelt Sympathy set. To begin, I masked the sides and sky are of the strip and sponged ink from the blue rainbow ink pad. Then I removed the sky mask and placed it over the water and sponged in the sun and sky using the birthstone & desert heat rainbow ink pads. After removing all the masks, that’s when I discovered my little boy looked like he was sitting on the water, lol. So I masked the sky again and sponged a green horizontal line using the fresh greens ink pad. After adding the sentiment, lg cattails and black layer my 4.25 x 5.50 card was finished.

    Congrats again, Lynn, enjoy your week!

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    For my birthday card, I used the new Special Boy set. I figured this set was about as masculine as they get and works well for big boys as well as little boys. I made the background for the largest layer and truck image by swiping various colors of Copic markers across a piece of vanilla card stock. Then the truck image and tire tracks were stamped on top of these using the dk brown chalk ink. I fussy cut the truck and attached it to a deckled rectangle of vanilla to give it a bit of separation. The metallic bronze layer was embossed w/ a Sizzix folder and the sentiment was die cut and attached to a leftover strip of the background with small bronze brads. Since I wanted to have crossed checkered flags, I stamped one as usual and stamped one again on the plastic sheet of my SAMJ (stamp-a-ma-jig) then quickly pressed a piece of vanilla c/s on top to get the reverse image.

    Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy Birthday, Rick!
