Dino-Mite!

Posted on May 27, 2018 6:53 AM by Julie 1 Comment

A big congrats to Sylvia, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS to case.I kept the cute dinosaur theme but changed almost everything else..different images, different colors & different layout.

After stamping, coloring the cute little dinosaur, I made a little forest scene on the white panel by stamping the 2 trees & masking as I went. The front most tree was stamped separately & fussy cut. I drew a box around the trees & colored in the sky & added some punched clouds.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For my typewriter card, I knew I wanted to watercolor this wonderful, vintage image, so I put it into my Misti & stamped it w/ Versafine onto watercolor paper. I added a water glaze on the areas I wanted to color then dropped in the different colors one at a time. The colors are a little different, but I like the way they blend into each other. When it dried, I went back & added more color in areas & added shadows. Then I over stamped it to sharpen up the details. I added a white linen frame & only used part of the greeting.

Here’s the inside.

North Coast Creations Feb Release!

Posted on February 5, 2018 7:58 AM by Julie Comment

Welcome to the North Coast Creations Feb Release! We have some super cute, really fun images for you this month! You can see all the new images & cards made w/ them over on the NCC/ODBD Blog.

My first card was made using the Stay Cool set. I just love the little sunglasses on the popsicle. I added the POP on the star above the greeting because that’s what we’ve always called my dad & I’m saving this one for Father’s Day. My pop is the coolest & that’s a fact! The center pop was stamped in black, colored & fussy cut. The other 2 were stamped in gray & colored. I added stickles to the center pop & distress stickles to the other 2. I really wanted the Coolest Pop to stand out! The Snowflake paper really adds to the frostiness.
Here’s the inside & Copic colors.

My next card uses the Olive You set.

Aren’t these little olives cute? They make a really sweet Valentine. I was going for a vintage Valentine look w/ the tag & big heart. Remember those you used to give out in grade school? The olives were stamped onto a sparkle fleck lime green c/s then colored first w/ Copics then overlaid w/ Prismacolor pencils. The narrow borders were colored to match & I added the little scallop edging.

The 3rd new set is Thanks a Latte.

For this cutie, I stamped him on a die cut tag then I used the Umbrella dies to make a topper for the tag. After I cut the two patterned papers w/ the bottom of the umbrella, I attached them to the tag & cut the top of the tag again so it would fit the tag shape. The greeting fit perfectly inside the Mini Stitched Heart die, though I did fussy cut the striped layer.

The 4th set is Stuck on You.

Isn’t this Peanut pair cute? I wanted a big heart cutout behind them so I put the circle w/ them off to the side & cut the left edge even w/ the top layer. This is another set that makes a wonderful, vintage feeling Valentine card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
