Hello and welcome! I'm back, at long last...
Today I'll be joining JUGS #799 CASE a DT member, but I chose to CASE two DT members, in various ways. You see, I love Bobby's daisies on the colored die frame with the white edge blacked out. However, I didn't have the dies for my stamps (and I definitely wasn't feeling the fussy cutting), so I had to go with it stamped directly on the die frame. As much as I love the frame she used, it was just too big and covered up too much of the background panel for me. So, then I looked to Carol's card and loved the off-set focal point. I found an unused, already embossed panel just waiting to be used, so that worked out! After mounting everything on the card base, I used my blending brush to add just a tad leftover green ink to the far-right corners and side. Yep, I'm happy with it! Oh, yes, the stamp was stenciled with one coral ink and two green inks. While the layering is faint, I do like it as it doesn't make the inking lines look harsh. Here's my inspiration ~
Bobby's card Carol's card
Does it work?
Since this stamp/stencil set, the sentiment/dies, and the embossing folder are making their first appearance, I'll be sending this to NBUS #80 also.
Secondly, I used the same set but additional image for one more card while it was out. This time, I stamped the image, blended through stencils with slightly different colors. I then cut the panel with a die and removed the outer edges to run through an embossing folder, used in the debossed orientation. A second frame cut of glitter cs to match the champagne NBUS foiled sentiment.
I really like this Fall color combo on this image, so it will go to Color Hues #121 - orange and brown. It also showcases a new set of press plate sentiments, so if I could send a second card from the same post...NBUS Challenge #80 would be the other challenge. Wish me luck!
Supplies:
Card #1 = Alt - Sisters of the Heart stamp/stencils; Splb - Leafy 3D embossing folder, Curved Everyday Sentiment gp/dies
Cars #2 = Alt - Sisters of the Heart stamp/stencils; PFS - Ornate Rectangle Frame; PB - Texture e/f; Splb - Sentiments of Wonder bpp
That's it for me today, I'm so glad you stopped by and shared your day with me! Have a great week and I hope to see you soon.
Hugs,
