Daisy Smile

This is for two challenges on Splitcoast today…MIX112 & QFTD254. For the QFTD, I chose THIS card of Lee Ann’s..I kept the layout & spring colors, but used flowers instead of butterflies & moved the greeting. for the MIX, I used dye inks to sponge the colors on my side panel, then I spritzed it w/ gold shine spray and I also heat embossed the flowers, greeting and splatter on the right side.

After sponging, spritzing and edging the left side panel w/ a gold leaf pen, I gold embossed a dragonfly on it. The larger white panel was die cut, the greeting & splatter were also gold embossed along w/ another dragonfly.The flowers were gold embossed, fussy cut, added on top & a crystal added in the center of each. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Button Baby

A big congrats to Becky, the newest Featured Stamper on Splitcoast (FS421)! She has a fun, colorful gallery and it was hard to pick, but I kept coming back to THIS card. I even started out to use a horse silhouette, but mine was a bit too small so I changed it to a baby giraffe & then changed the stars to buttons. I also changed it to a baby card & added some die cut lace & piercing.

My card is pretty simple…mostly die cuts. The baby giraffe was stamped on kraft & I added just a bit of shading with a white Prismacolor pencil. The inside edge of the circle die was traced w/ a black Sharpie then I used the same die to cut it, added some piercing & added a white scallop circle die cut behind it. The large kraft panel was die cut across the bottom w/ a scallop die then more piercing all around. The white crochet lace was also die cut & added beneath it. I used a border piercing die to just emboss the front of the white card. Some kraft & white buttons were die cut, twine tied through them & added in the scallops.

Congrats again, Becky! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Shamrock Bouquet

Posted on February 26, 2015 10:35 AM by Julie 1 Comment

Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge (WT520), is all about the color green (but you can also add earth tones). So my mostly green card w/ earth tone yellow/gold I think will fit the bill.

I started by stamping the Infinity Shamrock, masking it, then stamping the shamrock top from the Hatfull of Shamrocks then coloring them in. I die cut white & a gold panels w/ circles cut out toward the top to frame my bouquet. the greeting was stamped underneath. I stamped, colored and fussy cut a few shamrocks to add on either side of the greeting. These weren’t originally in the plan, but became necessary when a couple of mysterious spots appeared. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you haven’t yet, please check out the DRS Thursday Challenge..this week All Ears (use an image, punch or die of something that has ears..people, bunnies, dogs, cats, etc).
