JustRite Friday Challenge #097 - Color Inspiration

I am SO in love with the inspiration photos I put together for the challenge over at JustRite Inspiration! They are really MY kind of colors! I hope you like them too!

I started to stamp some flowers and color them for this one because JustRite has so many beautiful flower stamps but the necklace was speaking to me since Spellbinders is sponsoring and one of the D-Lites dies reminded me of the setting in the picture so I went with it! Instead, I used Grand Sentiments for my two-tone sentiment (this set is a must-have!)

I used Spellbinders D-Lite Medallion Four and cut some copper foil for the base of my flower. I created my flower with Spellbinders Rose Creations in orange polka dot paper. I also added a couple creme Flourish Trim D-Lite accents to the top and bottom behind the centerpiece. You can find many new D-Lites in the JustRite Store!

Next, I used Spellbinders Beaded Circles with clear dew drops on top to resemble the necklace. I think it matches the photo pretty good - how 'bout you?!?

JustRite Papercraft May Release Day 5

We have 2 great new clear stamp sets to debut today at JustRite Inspiration designed by Samantha Walker: All Boy

Pattern Basics

I originally had something different in mind but couldn't quite get it to work out?? I managed to use ONE of the sets here (and boy did I use a LOT of it!) but I ended up not fitting any of the patterns in.  I think I may go back later and put some on the inside but I just ran out of time this week.

I stamped the images and then hand cut some to pop up on the card. All the little stars were a perfect compliment and evened everything out nicely. I added a little coloring with my Copics here and there and heat embossed the car in a nice shiny red.

What boy wouldn't enjoy this birthday card?!?

Wait 'til you see what the rest of the team has for you today!

JustRite Papercraft May Release Day 4

Isn't the May Release at JustRite Papercraft AMAZING?!? And we're only HALFWAY through!! Today's sets will help you with those ever difficult masculine cards but some of the team has put a very unique spin on these sets: Explore Vintage Labels Four, The Journey Background stamp & Monogram Your Journey.

I wanted to combine all three sets today so you can see how they compliment each other so well! There are SO MANY possibilities for these sets!!

I really wanted a vintage feel so I stamped in brown and colored with my Copics. Next, I tore the edges and inked them up with Ranger Distress Inks and a dauber.

Check out the rest of the team!!

JustRite Papercraft May Release Day 3

We have a great background stamp for you today with a little French flair called Botanical Postcards:

I decided to use my new Faber-Castell 50s Diner Gelatos with this one and I really like how it turned out! I was a little scared to use the Gelatos but with a little practice (and a LOT of trial and error) you will get the hang of it in no time!

I thought this color scheme would be a nice change for me and puts me in the mood for Spring! I spritzed the stamp with a little water and then colored the various elements very carefully. Then, I spritzed a little more and placed the paper over on top and rubbed with my fingers over. I find it easier to get that watercolor image effect that way versus stamping ON the paper.

I added a little more color with a brush and tore the edges and inked some more with Memento ink. I hope you like this technique too!

You won't want to miss the rest of the team!

JustRite Papercraft May Release Day 2

If you missed Day 1 release of Irises Vintage Labels Four, you can find all the DT inspiration HERE. Today, I am showing Birthday Vintage Labels Four:

This is a GREAT set done in the popular chalkboard style!! I decided to create mine in a green chalkboard effect instead of the usual black style.

I started with Spellbinders Enchanted Labels Twenty-Eight 5 x 7 die and cut a big chunk out of the middle and pieced back together to fit my square card. I did the same thing with the Labels Twenty-Eight patterned piece. 

Next I stamped my image and heat embossed in white and added a little extra white inking here and there (although it's hard to see in the photo). I think this is going to be one of my favorite "go to" sets for birthdays!!!
