A big congrats to Shirl, the newest Featured Stamper (FS761) on Splitcoast. She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the layout & wreath, but used different images & dies & changed the colors up a bit.

For my Thanksgiving card, I die cut the layered pumpkins out of a few colors of rusty orange & the pumpkin vines & leaves out of a couple of shades of green. A needle piercing tool was used on the leaves to give them veins & I popped up a couple of the layers on the pumpkins to give them depth. I arranged them all on a die cut white ring then attached it to a square & layered it onto a rust square. The greeting was made out of two clear sets & stamped below.

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC822) this week.  We’re headed to Not on the High Street & their Pinterest Boards where I found THIS picture. 

For my card, I die cut a narrow gold circle then used a smaller one to cut out the inside. The 2 different holly dies were used w/ 2 different colors of metallic gold card stock. Some gold cord was wrapped around the circle, tied in a bow & the loose ends wound around the outside of the circle. The greeting was gold embossed below then the holly added on the simple wreath.

Congrats to Jane, the newest Featured Stamper (FS718) on Splitcoast! Jane has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the most of the layout & the lattice element, but I used different stamps, dies & made mine a Christmas card.

For my card, I had this wreath colored quite a while ago, just waiting to be made into a card, so I die cut it, using my out of the box technique (yep.there were a lot of parts out of the box on this one!), & backed it w/ a dk green circle layer. On the lattice, I used a slimline sized die but I only cut it part way, to fill the space I had available on the stitched rectangle cut piece. I’ll let you in on a little secret…the bottom part actually went a little too far. So I glued a narrow strip behind the piece, put it back in the stitched rectangle die, & ran it thru again. The patch is invisible! So don’t despair if this happens to you. After putting it all together, I added some sequins to the lattice & backed it w/ the same dk green.

Here are the Copics I used on the wreath.
