Spring Dogwoods

Posted on March 30, 2016 10:39 AM by Julie 1 Comment

Today’s Sketch Challenge (SC586) has sort of a grid layout. I thought this paint chip down the side was a good representation of the divided side panels.

This is a very quick card…I already had the white panel that the circle cut out of it so I stamped, colored & fussy cut the dogwoods to add in the opening. It’s backed w/ a chocolate panel that all I had to do was trim the length. The greeting was added in Versafine sepia ink & I used a bracket border die for the paint chip.

Here are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Shamrock Shenanigans

Posted on March 21, 2016 11:37 AM by Julie 1 Comment

Well…I realize St. Paddy’s Day was last week, but the Clean & Simple (CAS369) is basically, well…St. Patrick’s Day. Go figure! So here I am w/ one last card. Since green (any shade) is my favorite color, I always like this holiday & I guess I’ll have one ready for next year.

To make my easy card, I white embossed the polka dot bg on the green & die cut it. On the white layer, I die cut a large shamrock & used the negative space instead. The greeting & a few shamrocks were stamped & I sprinkled a few sequins to finish.

Here’s a look at the inside.

Some Bunny?

Posted on March 14, 2016 11:35 AM by Julie 1 Comment

The Clean & Simple (CAS368) challenge on Splitcoast today is spring critters. This little frog pretending to be the Easter bunny should fit right in.

After stamping my flower bearing frog, I masked his head & added the bunny ears then colored with Copics. I used a bracket border to cut the right edge then Copics to edge the panel in the two colors. The blue flowers are just a strip I used a border punch on & I used the same punch to do the peach layer & the white card front. A Copic was used to darken the edge of the peach layer before assembling. The greeting was added as well as some sequins.

Here are the Copics I used.
