A New Slant

Hello!

It’s been a while and I wanted to share my Splitcoaststamper cards from June.  I KNOW! It’s been 6 months….I’m thoroughly ashamed that I have not posted these sooner.  But there are rules about sharing and now I feel like many of the cards are not “in season” anymore -is there such a thing?  Anyway – I’ll share my favorites today.  I hope you like them!  The theme was “A New Slant” and we based our cards on geometric shapes – or at least I did. 😀

best-day-ever-2

My first card uses repeat stamping using the triangles that come with the “Best Ever Set” by Stampin’ Up.  I repeated the stamps in an ombre  fashion and embossed the tag on vellum. I added some colored banners behind the vellum to help the sentiment stand out, then sewed the banners onto the card front. To give some accent to the card and finish it off, I added a strip of black designer paper.

lets-bokeh-1

For my second card, I did a watercolor background and used water droplets to pull up water.  Then I used Lawn Fawn’s “Let’s Bokeh” and white craft ink to add larger circles to create a bokeh look. I added more circles using decorative acetate I cut out using a circle die and embellished the card using gold thread and sequins.

snuggle-bunnies-1

My third card is another watercolor panel, but I decided to use a peek-a-boo die to accent it.  The bunnies and bear are colored using Copic markers. I die-cut the word friends and propped it up with foam tape as I did with the peek-a-boo panel.

heart-of-gold

My last card is every simple.  I was on a watercoloring kick that month! This geometric heart embossed in gold is the perfect accept for a simple watercolor panel. Extremely simple and accented with a banner of vellum with some Pretty Pink Posh droplets.

Supplies for all the cards are listed below in the same order.  Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO,

caly-sig

  1. Oh, sweet Caly, these are so adorable, and you did a fabulous job for that month’s theme! I love them all, but the sweet one with the little bunnies and teddy bear is my favorite! I have a thing about teddies! I have my mom’s teddy bear collection and have added to it…just a few special ones that I cherish. And I love each one! Beautifully done work, sweet Caly, and you are amazing and make such gorgeous cards!! Hugs to you and your sweet hubby, boys, and sweet Layla! xoxo

    1. Hi Cheryl! Funny that you said that. I made that card for a friend who loves bunnies! I will remember that you love teddys and think of you the next time I use that stamp set!
