The Color Challenge on Splitcoast (CC745) is red, white & blue w/ a dessert option of Patriotic. Since it’s almost the 4th of July, it sounded perfect. 

My card is pretty simple..I colored & fussy cut the patriotic heart & blue layer behind it. Stamped the greeting on the die cut white front. I also die cut the band of stars down the left & replaced the outline w/ a blue one.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

For the Inspiration Challenge, we’re heading to Country Living and I was inspired by THIS picture. I liked the blue bg w/ the white flowers but I switched out the rain boots for a pair of swans.

I started by using my Misti to stamp the swan several times onto a piece of blank rubber, then I stamped it onto the card stock. Then I stamped the regular one in front of it. I added just a bit of color to them then fussy cut them. For the background, I die cut the flower heart, then put it back into the opening & added a lt blue layer behind.

Here’s the inside.

For the CAS Challenge (CAS517), the theme is to use the letters COLD. So for my card, I have:

C = Copic coloring
O = owl
L= Love
D= die cutting

This card was pretty easy. I had already colored & die cut Epstein the owl the other day & didn’t use him, so today is his day! The Love word was also already done, but not used yet. I added a white layer behind it to help it stand out from the rose strip behind it. Only the first half of the greeting was used & I used my Misti to help place it & rearrange part of it.

Here’s a look at the inside (blank for now) & the Copic I used for Epstein.
