For the Inspiration Challenge (IC799), we’re headed to Homebnc Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture.

On my card, I’m using some new dies & greetings from Rubbernecker Stamps. I first die cut the large pot our of an alcohol ink bg. It’s a little hard to tell, but it’s pretty shiny & metallic in real life. The stems of all the flowers were cut out of a few greens & the flowers were all cut out of white that sponged different pastel colors of ink on to get all the colors. The bg was cut w/ a couple of slimline dies & I placed a larger turquoise layer behind them. To get the inside frame, I cut the white piece twice, using 2 sizes of the die set, then put middle (frame part) back.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For my card, after stamping & coloring, I die cut the dahlias, using my out of the box technique on the left side. The matching dies will let you cut out the flower heads separately, but since I already had them arranged, I did this way so I could have them still part of the white panel. For the black dotty panel, I wanted some black & white paper but didn’t have any that was just right. So…I took a piece of black & embossed it w/ folder that has 2 sizes of dots. Then I took out my Japanese screw punch & used 2 sizes of bits to drill out the embossed dots. Having the pattern already embossed, made it really easy & quick. Here’s a pic showing the process.

The greeting was white embossed on a small black strip.

Here are the Copics I used for these beautiful dahlias.

A big congrats to Tanya, the newest Featured Stamper (FS716) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderfully fun gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I liked the layout so I kept that & I started to use a floral, but then changed my mine & made it a coffee theme. I used different images, dies & moved the greeting to below the rectangle.

After coloring & die cutting the coffee lover, I used part of a slimline sized bg image to stamp the black rectangle w/ Distress picket fence ink. It was colored in using Prismacolor pencils..I was going for that look you see in coffee shops where they color in & write w/ colored chalk on the blackboard. I framed it in white then added the greeting.

Here are the Copics I used on her:
