Inspiration Challenge

The Inspiration Challenge has always been my favorite on Splitcoaststampers.  It's always such a treat to see how people see something and make it their own.  Today's site is a Flickr gallery of Stampscapes creations.  I have always admired the scenes I have seen that were made using these wonderful stamps.  I have only a couple of them, but I did see a scene that I thought I could recreate. Here is a link to Kevin Nakagawa's beautiful creation. Here is my card:


I tried to get some purple into those clouds using a marker, but it really didn't look like it did in my head.  I might have to practice that a little bit!

Stamps:  Stampscapes Clouds with Moon; MFP Stamp Shop Scenic Selections, PussyWillow; The Artful Stamper Palm Trees
Paper:  MFP Stamp Shop Black Linen, Groovin' Grape, Snow Storm Smooth; Creative Imaginations DP
Ink:  Ranger Distress Chipped Sapphire, Versafine Onyx Black

Stampin'B's Challenge #33 - Red/White/Black & A Moon

Today is the day for which we’ve waited a long time – “New Moon” is released. I bought my ticket two weeks ago! It’s hard to believe that so many “non-teenagers” are all so gaga over a book which was written as a teenage love story. It must be something about the vampires! As the hostess for this week’s Stampin’B’s DT challenge, I couldn’t let the date pass without a New Moon-related challenge: a color challenge (red, white, and black) with a twist (must have a moon).

The trees are stamped in Palette Noir Black on GP White. I used my Stamp-a-ma-Jig to line up the horizon line and stamped it twice so that the trees would spread all the way across the white panel. Then I stamped the Stampscapes moon and stippled the sky. Granted, it’s a full moon not a new moon, but I’m thinking it still counts! I stamped the moon again, cut it out, and popped it up. The sentiment is from Artful Inkables Twilight-related set Fictionally Inspired, and I layered the panel with three Petite Ovals Nestabilities. It is stamped with Palette Noir Black and clear embossed.
