Just a Number

Posted on June 23, 2016 7:03 PM by Julie 3 Comments

Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge (WT589) gave me the perfect opportunity to use an idea for numbers dies that I had in the back of mind. After I die cut all the numbers into the dk orange layer, I added a lt blue layer behind it so the cutouts would show. I attached most of the cutout numbers on top & a plaid layer behind the other two layers.
It probably took me longer to find the perfect 3 greetings to put together for the little star in the upper left than anything. I put them into my Misti, one at a time then inked the part I wanted w/ a black Tombow marker then repeated since I usually don’t get that a great an image the first time when using a marker instead of ink. The rest of the greeting was curved (it’s a clear stamp, so pretty easy to do) & I used a Double Stitched Circle die to cut the curvy shape around it.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Supplies:

Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – Sending My Love, Superstar (retired), Home Sweet Home, Mini Tag Sentiments, (You Bless Me So -inside- retired)

Paper: Staples 110# white, lt blue, dk orange, dp (ODBD -Birthday Brights paper)

Serendipity June Blog Hop!

Welcome to the June Blog Hop for Serendipity Stamps! If you arrived here from Jenny’s Blog, you are in the right place..if not, you may want to head over there first.
My first card features the super cute little Heart Bouquet. I found a small piece of water color background in my stash & the colors seemed perfect for it. I stamped it w/ Versafine off to the side & used a white gel pen in just a few small areas. A die cut white linen frame was attached on top of it w/ the Love You stamped at the bottom & one small, fussy cut heart at the top. For the larger linen layer, I stamped the Sun Garden image across the bottom & left it uncolored. I drew the very narrow frame around it w/ a ruler & black Micron pen. A couple of narrow black layers were attached under the 2 white linen layers.

Supplies:

Stamps: Serendipity Stamps – Heart Bouquet, Sun Garden, Love You Sm.

Paper: water color, Staples #110 white, Neenah white linen, black

Ink: Versafine onyx

Accessories: , Spellbinders A2 matting basics A & B dies, pierced rectangles, MISTI, Brushos water color crystals, white gel pen, black micron pen

As I started my second card, I realized I did not have any wedding or anniversary images or greetings 😯 So I used mostly die cuts out of silver mirror board to go w/ the silver & kraft colored paper I had. The Special Day greeting was silver heat embossed on a piece of plain craft & inserted under the large Congratulations die cut.

The two little hearts beneath the greeting were from the Love die, which I ended up not using here. I love the look of the mirror board die cuts, but it is so hard to photograph!

Supplies:

Stamps: Serendipity Stamps – Everyday Words Small

Paper: Staples #110 white, silver mirror board, kraft, dp (Recollections – Vintage Glam)

Ink: Encore Ulitmate metallic silver pigment

Cowboy on Red

Posted on May 23, 2016 10:39 PM by Julie 1 Comment

Today’s Technique Challenge (TLC587) on Splitcoast is a Collar Fold. I admit, I’ve seen a few of these & really liked the look, so this is my attempt.

I had an idea to use the fold w/ this wonderful cowboy image & have the collar fold peel back to reveal a little more of the scene. The paper I used is double sided, a bright red distressed on one side, a paler peach on the other. The image was stamped (a couple of times, using the Misti) w/ Versafine then die cut. I did the collar fold on the left & peeled the edges back & added brads. I stamped part of the silhouette scene again on the larger red layer & attached the top layer on top along w/ a very narrow black frame. The moon/eagle image was stamped on white, fussy cut & added along w/ the greeting.
