    Weekly-FavoriteWelcome to a new challenge for Serendipity Stamps! The Serendipity Challenge this week is a Tri-Shutter Card!  You can find all the details on how to play along with us at the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog. With each challenge we always have a gift certificate up for grabs to a random player. And this week’s sale will be free shipping on any US order of $10 or more… offer good Sept  11-18. I’m also adding this to the Splitcoast Ways to Use It Challenge (WT444)…use designer paper!
    For my Tri-Shutter card, I used this sweet Snowman w/ Birds image. After coloring him with Copics, I die cut him using my out of the box Nestie technique. I added a lt blue die cut layer then attached him to the front section of my tri-shutter card. The purple piece was die cut w/ a fancy snow border. I didn’t use other papers on the sections to the right of him, because I liked the way all the white space showed him off.

    I added narrow sections of different patterned papers on the open sections. On the far right right panel, I added a long pennant flag with the sentiment and the snowflake on top. I added a couple of the same snowflake on the panels facing the sentiment, but so sorry…I didn’t take a pic to show it!

    After finishing, I added just a little stickles to a few areas of the snowman. If you’d like the template for this Tri-Shutter card, it can be found HERE.  These are the Copics I used to color everything.

    A big Congrats to Julie (Humma), the Featured Stamper (FS344) on Splitcoast! She has such a fabulous gallery and I chose THIS  card of hers to case. I kept the 4 block layout and bright colors but I used different images, added some faux stitching and made mine a Halloween card.

    The image is from DRS Designs and I just love it!  I thought it would be fun to use fluorescent Copic markers on it. After stamping and coloring it, I used a rectangle die to cut it. I had some small scraps of neon yellow/green & orange so I incorporated them into a color blocked background along w/ the black card stock. The faux stitching was done with a black micron and a neon orange gel pen. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25. These are the Copics & Sharpies (Sharpie has a neon set, too!) I used to color it.

  • ODBD September Release!

    Pink Wreath 01941

    Welcome to the Our Daily Bread designs September Release! Wow, do we some fabulous images for you!

    On my wreath card, I stamped the Holly Wreath with the bamboo ink and shaded the background holly w/ a lt green Copic marker.For the top images, I used a dk green Micron pen to outline them and make them stand out more. The image and the designer paper circle behind it were die cut with circle dies and added on top of an embossed white layer. On the larger designer paper layer, I added some scored lines at the bottom. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

    Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – Holly Wreath, Jingle Bells
    Paper: white, dp (Making Memories)

    Pink Ornament 01953

    For my pink ornament card, after cutting a large background piece out of two sided pink designer paper, I die cut the fancy ornament out of the reverse side. I stamped the greeting on white and die cut the same ornament shape around it, then trimmed away all but the center greeting section and attached it on top of the pink version. The corners (from the same set) were also die cut out of the dark pink and since some of the paper had white streaked areas, I used a white Permapaque marker to add them to all of the corners.

     

    The pinecone was stamped on white and fussy cut to add on top of the ornament. Another solid ornament die was used to die cut the white backing ornament. I added some white dots on the dk pink background to help tie it all together. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
