    Happy Saturday! I hope y’all are having a great weekend!

    I made this for today’s Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoast. All images are Our Daily Bread designs and are new June releases. I stamped the psalm and cut it out w/ a rectangle nestie then punched the lower border and the corners. It’s attached to a baby blue panel and I added some faux pearls in the flower centers.

    The background was embossed w/ a CB folder and attached to blue then to a 5.5 x 4.25 (A2) white card. I’m terrible w/ ribbon but after a 20 minute struggle, I managed to tie this bow. I even used the bow easy. Ha ha, I know. I made a 1/2 inch faux brad and glued it to the center of my bow.

    Monochromatic Cards.

     

     

    Stampers are alwaJulie Warner - justwritedesigns https://thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.comys mesmerized by colors,  huh? What a lovely way to use your scraps or possibly colors you’d never consider experimenting with! So, we challenge you to give it a try and share your results! Plus, one more thing, the Rustic Artsy Swirls sheet is on SALE!

    Here’s a link to a Monochromatic Color Chart: http://websitetips.com/colortools/sitepro/

     

    For my card, I stamped the background on turquoise paper with lime ink. I used the tiny specks and teal ink on teal, olive and grass green card stock, then stamped the different sizes of flowers and cut them out. The sentiment and butterflies were stamped on grass green c/s that was spritzed with bleach. A little color was added to the large butterfly with a marker.

    On the green frame, I used an embossing border to create my frame and sponged it w/ calypso blue ink. The teal card was also stamped with the specks background image.

    Congrats to Gloria (GloriousGreetings) , the Featured Stamper today at Splitcoast.  I picked a couple that I want to case and this is the first one. I chose her Heartfelt Sympathy for this one. I kept the brayered background, silhouette images and big main panel, but I changed the colors, the images and added another layer.

    All images, embossing powder, adhesives and glitters are from Sparkle N Sprinkle. After doing a brayered bg on a 1/4 sheet of white glossy c/s, I used the static pad and stamped this great Art Deco image in the center of the panel  w/ black pigment ink and embossed it w/ black ep. Sometimes I’m asked why I don’t use clear ep w/ the black ink or black ep w/ a clear ink. Almost exclusively, I use an ink very close to the color of the ep I want to use because it gives me a much deeper color. It also hides any flaws like when a tiny portion doesn’t get the ep. I stamped the lady portion of the image again on a scrap of  matte white c/s using black permanent ink. On this image, I used markers to color her, cut her out and applied glue and black glitter to her dress. Then I attached her to the base image w/ a little card board under her to give her just a little lift.

    I used a craft knife to cut the base image along the straight sides because I used the rest of the bg for my big layer. Some highlights were added w/ a white gel pen and  lavender and black layers were added underneath before attaching it over the main bg. Another black layer was added then everything was attached to a 4.25 x 5.5 (A2) white card. I used a Cuttlebug ornamental border die to cut the black scroll element, brushed glue over it and coated it w/ black glitter before attaching it below the image. I made 3 faux brads and coated them w/ glitter as well.  If you’d like to see just how I make these nice rounded brads, I just finished a new Faux Brad Tutorial. I’d love for you to check it out!
