SSCB#18 Serendipity Stamps – Polka Dots or Gingham

Posted on August 21, 2013 12:01 AM by Julie 3 Comments

On my card, I went with both polka dots and gingham. I stamped this beautiful Holly with Frame image, colored it with Copics and fussy cut it. The red panel was stamped with the greeting first in the white ink then overstamped with the black ink. It’s attached to a vanilla panel embossed with the Swiss dots then to a gingham piece of designer paper.

The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used to color it.

Congrats to Heidi, the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS341)! What a big, beautiful gallery she has and I chose THIS card of hers to case. I kept the framed layout with sentiment below, but I used different images, different colors and I made mine a Christmas card.

After I colored the beautiful candle image from DRS Designs w/ Copics, I had to do a little out of the box Nestie technique so the edges of the holly wouldn’t be cut off by the rectangle die. And on the fancy red layer behind it, I used the Nestie resizing technique to make a rectangle out of a square die.

The greeting was die cut using the same die I used for its red tag shape then I cut around the greeting and attached it to the red tag. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used to color the image

Congrats again, Heidi! Enjoy your week! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Today we are taking a look back at Our Daily Bread designs August Release, here is the card I created using the Strawberries, Blue Ribbon Winner, Canning Jar dies , Fancy Foliage dies & Recipe & Tag dies. For more inspiration using the Augsut Release be sure to visit the ODBD Blog.

For my card, I stamped and die cut the lg and sm canning jars, reverse masked them and stamped the strawberries inside and colored them with Copic markers. I die cut a recipe card and then moved the bottom of the die up to shorten it a bit. With the die in place, I sponged some lt green ink inside the die edge and stamped the Strawberries on the tab. The lg strawberries and strawberry border were die cut and colored with Copics. For the large background, I use the vine from the Fancy Foliage dies and embossed it in several places rather than die cutting it. I used a green Copic to add color to the leaves and vines.The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
