JustRite Friday Challenge #065: For The Love Of ...

For today's new JustRite Friday Challenge #065, For The Love Of . . . we'd like to see what it is you love!  Our challenge to you is to make a project using your JustRite stamps depicting something you love.  Examples: A love/Valentine card for a spouse, sibling, friend.  A love scrapbook page for a child.  An I/you/we love chocolate (or other food, shoes) card or gift.  A floral card because you love flowers, etc.  Easy enough?!!

My sample is a Valentine/Love card, using one of my favorite things to color ... flowers! (JustRite Clear With Sympathy roses):

The roses were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto patterned paper and then colored with Copic markers (colors listed below).

The image was die cut with Spellbinders dies and the seam binding ribbon was also colored with Copic markers to match the roses.

The grand prize for this challenge will be one of our brand new CHA Release stamp sets, a background stamp and a JustRite custom die set of the winner's choice!

Our first challenge for the new year is this tranquil and serene inspiration photo:

Just use the photo to gather inspiration for your project -- either from the colors, patterns, layout, textures or general feeling, combined with your JustRite stamps.

My sample uses the color palette and the bilowy drapes reminded me of butterflies, for this 4"x4" card:

I used JustRite's Clear Botanical Butterflies set, stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa ink onto ivory cardstock and colored with Copic markers and Atyou Spica Glitter Pens. The butterfly image was die cut with Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circle Nestabilities dies and popped up over patterned paper die cut with JustRite's new Nested Oval Medallion Labels dies.
