It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC887) this week & we’re visiting Paper Heart Design & their Pinterest Boards where I was inspired by THIS color palette.


For my mini slimline card, I die cut a piece of the winter paper w/ a stitched mini slimline die & added a narrow red layer behind it. The wreath was built using die cuts from part of a wreath set, mistletoe, branches & poinsettias. Since it looked a little busy w/ the paper showing thru the wreath center, so I put back the white center from the wreath ring. The  Merry w/ shadow was popped up a bit & I used a paper crimper to crimp the red wreath hanger. Gold stickles was added on the wreath & poinsettias.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope everyone had a very good Thanksgiving! For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC866) we are visiting Colorful Images & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS picture.

My slimline card was created using die cuts, some new paper & a greeting from an outdoor stamp set. The cute little camper & van were die cut out of several different colors & pieced together. Normally, the camper faces left, but I needed it to face right, so after die cutting the body of it, I placed just the piece of paper (minus the die) on top the magnetic mat & placed the embossing mat on top & ran it thru the machine. This helped remove the normal indentations from the die. All of the other pieces were ok as is, I just moved them to the opposite side. The van & the camper are both popped up on foam. The paper pad is 6×6, but I discovered one side could be matched up to the other so I carefully did this & I can barely see it in person.

You can see the dimension here.

A big congrats to Sarah, the newest Featured Stamper (FS824) on Splitcoast. She has fun gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the bird & Christmas theme, but I used different images, dies & paper, moved the greeting & made mine a mini slimline.

My little owl, all tangled up in the Christmas lights, was colored & die cut. I used foam to pop him up a bit. I cut my papers on an angle, but not as steep an angle as Sarah did.  My greeting was too big to fit under the angled edge, so I moved it to the bottom & added some sequins.


Here are the Copics I used:
