More Falliday challenges

Time spend creating today was used to make more cares for the Falliday challenges at Splitciaststampers. 

Die-Cut inlays is the first challenge. 

 I die cut this Asian bird fromTutti Designs and an Alcohol Ink Marbling technique card piece.  Then, re-cut the die from a Copper Metallic card.  A white piece of cardstock was run through the Zyron, and adhered to the back of the technique sheet and the Copper Metallic die inserted.  I burnished translucent glitter into the openings of the bird. 

  The Kanji says Friend and is embissed using a Copper Shimmer EP. The Copper Metallic edging is a thin Washi tape. 

 

 This challenge was to use twine on your card.  I used a card kit that was sitting on my desk- everything but the twine and the Confetti cardstock was in the kit. The ornaments are diecut from a metallic cardstock, and the sequins are pretty shimmery too. 

It was nice to get creative and fun to make more Falliday cards- it looks like the deadline for uploading is 11/20, so you'll see a few more Falliday cards/projects before then : )

Thanks for stopping by!

Glimmer and Shimmer

Another card made for the Falliday Fest at Splitcoaststampers.  The theme for the card is Glimmer/Shimmer/Glitter. 

 The backing is an Embossing Folder.  The blue is done in watercolor and there is a bit of shimmer in it.  I used Daniel Smith watercolors.  The snowflakes are painted on using Irridescent Medium- painted on shimmer and no glitter flakes off : )  I added rhinestones over the snowflakes.  

 The die cut sentiment was cut on white shimmer cardstock x's 3, and it blended into the background too much.  So, I used Brocade blue and die cut that, and added Blue glitter over that for the top layer.  My hubby gave it a thumbs up...... The word Die is Sissix. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Falliday cards

Splitcoaststampers is currently having its annual Falliday Fest- with many challenges and tutorials.  Many folks focus on Holiday cards- Thanksgiving and Christmas.  

 I have been able to create two cards so far (out of the 10 challenges posted). 

This is a Mixed Media Die Cut Collage . The die cuts are cut from watercolor paper and glued onto a card base. Then, water reactive inks are applied over them- in this case, I used Distress Oxide inks. I splashed on a touch of water then added drops of white paint. Rhinestones were placed in the centers of the snowflakes.  The snowflake dies are by Joy Crafts. The sentiment is silver embossed and is by Unity. 

 A triple fold card is one of the tutorials for the Falliday Fest. The DP is by Echo park.  The deer image is from a page of the DP pack. The sentiment is by Gina K Designs. I added Enamel Dots and called it finished. 

Thanks for stopping by!
