Hello stampers!  I'm here to share a card that I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card I CASED:

I started by stamping, die cutting, and coloring the florals and sentiment.  Next I embossed a white panel measuring 4.5"x3.25", and embossed it with the Criss Cross Floral embossing folder.  I matted this with a black mat, and adhered it to the fresh freesia card base.  To finish the front I adhered all of my die cut florals and sentiment.  For the inside I replicated the white and black layers.  I stamped the sentiment and a floral image and colored it in.

Hello Stampers!  I got a bonus day off today due to the blizzard we are having right now!  So I took my cup of coffee into my craft room and got to work.  This card is for two challenges.  One being the Clean and Simple Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers: Timber.  And the other challenge is using the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.

For my card I started with the frame.  I die cut the wood grain frame, and then die cut a white panel for the inside of the frame.  I stamped my focal image onto this white panel and colored it in with Copic markers.  Next I framed the "arch" by blending Tumbled Glass ink onto the top portion of the white panel.  To the sky I die cut some whittle clouds and adhered them onto the ink blended sky. For the sentiment I stamped and die cut it with a sentiment strip die.  Then I was stuck.  I wasn't sure what to do with the sprigs that are on the sketch.  I tried grass, but that didn't look right.  So I went through my dies and found a flourish die.  It had similar leaves as the focal image, so I die cut two flourishes and cut them apart.  I adhered them flourishes to the card base and then popped up the sentiment.  I kept the inside of the card simple by die cutting a wood grain frame and stamping a sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

For my card I changed the orientation of the card.  I kept the same color cardstock, I liked how she used a grey card base with the white card panel.  I usually just to white on white, and this caught my eye.  I created a mask, and ink blended the background.  Then I spritzed on some water like she did.  Next I lined up the butterflies and sentiment in the Misti and stamped them.  For the happy I die cut it three times and adhered them together and then onto the card.  To finish I added some bling.  For the inside I lined up the butterflies and sentiment in the Misti and stamped it.

Hello Stampers!  It is Featured Stamper Sunday over at Splitcoaststampers.  Today's Featured Stamper is Barbara, and this is the card I selected to CASE.  

For my card I started by masking off the focal panel with Masking Magic which I cut 1/2 inch strips of.  Then I adhered this to the focal panel.  Next I stamped the heart floral image, and blended the sky and ground.  I really like how she flicked on some more color on her blended background.  I ended up using a drop of reinker and watering it down a bit, and flicking on the color with a paint brush.  While this dried I stamped, colored, and cut out the heart florals.  I adhered these to the card base with 1/8 inch glue dots.  To finish the florals I added a bit of white gel pen.  I felt like it still needed a little somethin' somethin', so I added some clear sequins.  For the sentiment I stamped, heat embossed, and die cut the sentiment and adhered it to the bottom of the focal panel.  For the inside of the card I stamped and die cut the sentiment, and added a black mat.  Then I stamped, die cut, and colored in some butterflies.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hello Stampers!  I made this card using two challenges.  One is the sketch challenge over at Paper Players. And the other challenge is the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  To make my card I started with the Filigree Heart.  I die cut it, and then die cut a stitched square around it.  I framed this with some real red glimmer paper.  For the card front I die cut it with the Concord and 9th quilted card front die.  I adhered the heart to the card front, and then it was time for the sentiment.  First I heat embossed the sentiment in white on a black banner, but I didn't like it.  Then I stamped the sentiment in red on a white banner, again I didn't like it.  Then I thought can I heat emboss on glimmer paper??  So I gave it a try, and surprisingly enough it worked!  So I popped the sentiment up with some mini dimensionals.  For the inside I kept it simple.  I stamped the sentiment with real red on a white square and then matted it with some red glimmer paper.  I love all of the sparkle on this card.  It was hard to capture the glimmer in my photo.  Thanks so much for stopping by!!
