For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC849), we’re visiting a company called Babasouk & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS lovely picture.


For my spring slimline, I stamped, colored & fussy cut the bike, then sponged the background sky, grass & sun. I used some little flower images from the Woodlands set to ad the row of flowers. The picket fence was die cut & since it’s an A2 size, I didn’t cut all the way to the end, moved the die down, matching up the pickets, & cut the rest of the way, effectively adding almost another length of fence. A lt gray Copic was used to add some dimension to the fence. A couple of sections of grass were added; 1 behind the fence & 1 in front. The cloud edges were lightly sponged & added across the top.

Here are the Copics I used:

A big congrats to Nancy, the newest Featured Stamper (FS787) on Splitcoast! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the birds/leaves theme but used different dies, slightly different colors & made mine a Spring card.

My card is fairly simple..I die cut everything, lol. The birdhouse is popped up, as is the leaf frame & Spring word. I actually put the Spring word w/ the shadow back into the space it was cut from to give it a slightly embedded look. Stickles was added to the flower centers & inside the heart on the birdhouse.

I did trim down the green leaf frame a bit in order to have a little show around the edges. Sorry, I think the tiny flowers die is out of stock right now, but please check back.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC846), we’re visiting Simply Woven & their Pinterest Board where I found THIS for my inspiration.

For my Easter card, I stamped, colored & die cut all the images, using 3 different Easter sets & a limited color palette like the photo. The 4 pane window was die cut out of white & popped up just a bit & all the different images were arranged in the windows. I stamped the greeting in one of white windows & put another behind the Easter basket. I finished by adding a little Wink of Stella on the tulips & in the decorated areas of the eggs.
