For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC740) we have Stencil Girl Shop. They have some wonderful stencils, but it was a bit tough at first for me..I tend to be inspired by color first & it was all in black & white! So I headed over to the blog & found lots of color. THIS is my inspiration..the color bands reminded me of a rainbow, so that’s the direction I went.
I started by stamping & coloring the image, then used my into the window techinque to cut around the top, then inserted the stitched rainbow die behind it. I colored each rainbow strip then put them back behind the image. A little Wink of Stella gave them a nice sparkle.
Just to give it a finished edge, I added a narrow yellow strip at the bottom of the rainbow, then stamped the greeting.

A big congrats to Patricia, the newest Featured Stamper (FS674) on Splitcoast! And a big welcome to Nancy, our newest Featured Stamper hostess! After much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I love the bright flowers w/ the black & white so I kept that. I used different images & dies, & instead of the patterned paper, I used a stenciled panel & stamped the greeting on it.
After coloring the brushed flower, I used my into the window technique to die cut an oval to the left side of it. Added a black frame inside the oval & stamped the greeting on a green stenciled bg. On the stenciled bg, I used a Kaleidacolor greens rainbow ink pad to sponge thru the stencil. It was actually something I didn’t use for another project & decided I liked how it looked inside the oval. A few sequins were added for a little sparkle.
Here are the Copics I used on the flower:

A big congrats to Jennifer, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a wonderful, fun gallery & I chose THIS to case. I kept the cat theme but used different images, different dies & made mine a birthday card.
The first time I saw this greeting, it cracked me up so I had to figure out a way to use it. When I saw Jennifer’s bunch of cats, it all came together for me. After I stamped the lady, I drew a cat ears headband on her & added a mask. I did a little into the window on the right side of her in order to make a frame. The group of cats were stamped & die cut w/ their matching die & added inside the window. Then I split the greeting in two & added it on the frame.
Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
