Posts Tagged ‘out of the box’

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC880) we’re visiting Urban Owl and their Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture.

For my tag trio card, I die cut the largest out of a maroon card stock and white for the medium tag. I used the fall twig bg image, gold ink and embossed it w/ gold powder. The book and cup image was stamped and colored and I used a little out of the box on the right side when I cut it using the smallest tag die. A gold Krylon pen was used to edge all of the tags and I tied a little bow w/ gold thread thru the smallest one.

The autumn patterned paper was die cut w/ a curved die and I used some leftover pieces of the double sided paper to cut the 3 leaves.

Here are the Copics I used:

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS797) so a big congrats to Karen! She has a big, beautiful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme and long layout but used different images, dies & stencil.

For my card, I used a new stamp set & coordinating stencil. The stencil has layered parts so it’s so quick & easy to add color w/ no masking..I just love it! After I stamped it, I used the stencil to sponge on the yellows & lt reds for the flower & greens for the leaves. I did a little out of the box to keep from cutting off parts of the flower when I die cut it w/ mini slimline die. I added the greeting on its own oval & backed it w/ a scallop oval. On the lg green bg, after die cutting w/ the larger mini slimline, I used a new piercing cover die for some added interest.

Since I forgot to add the ink colors in my top picture, here are the colors I used to sponge the flower & leaves:

A big congrats to Karen, the newest Featured Stamper (FS755) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the floral theme but used different stamps, dies & colors. I also changed the layout a bit.

For my thank you card, I stamped the layered flowers using the Color Fuse inks then die cut the white panel using my out of the box technique & a slimline die for the flower on the left. The black layer was die cut w/ a larger die & attached behind. The greeting was white embossed & I added a line of pearls as embellishments.
