A big Congrats to Deb, the newest Featured Stamper (FS729) on Splitcoast! Deb has such a big beautiful gallery & after much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I kept the slimline layout & cute space theme, but I used different images & dies, different colors & instead of dp, I made a stenciled & emboss resist bg.

After I die cut the bg, I stenciled the star bg & embossed the stars w/ silver ep, then I sponged the dark blue inks over it. All the little space images were colored & die cut. A few die cut white stars were added along w/ the greeting strip.

Here are the Copics I used:

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC790), we are headed to Hot Chocolate Designs Pinterest Board where I found THIS pair of shoes. I just love the bold stripes w/ the flowers.

After coloring & fussy cutting the spiky flowers, I die cut the slimline layers, cutting two of the inside panel. I used an angle die to cut the pair & put the bottom part into my Misti & stamped the bold stripe w/ black ink. The small Sending part was also fussy cut & the die cut Love was triple stacked.

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS678) this week, so a big congrats to JJ Barrett (aka IndigosMom)! JJ has a lovely, colorful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the blue flower & chevron embossing, but used different images & dies, different embossing folder & a different layout.

To me, the blue, white & yellow color combo looks so fresh & crisp. After I colored the flowers, I die cut them, doing a little out of the box cutting to lift a couple of the petals on top of the die cut zigzag frame I attached on top. The script was heat embossed w/ white ink & white powder onto the cobalt blue strip. The white bg was dry embossed & I actually used the back side because I liked it a little better for this. On the Love die cut, I cut it in white & also blue, then spliced them together, using the cut off parts underneath their opposites for a double stack.

Here are the Copics I used. I also used yellow & ultramarine Prismacolor Pencils to add depth to the colors.
