It's another beautiful day here at JustRite, as we have another preview of Spring! You will love the four borders and three flowers in this Beautiful Day stamp set (snow drop, lily, iris) along with one of my favorite sentiments in a gorgeous font, in this large oval JustRite Original ribbed set. It retails for $16.95:
This set is currently available on our Pre-Order website and should arrive in our warehouse and be ready for shipping next week! You'll use this set for Valentine's Day, birthdays, Easter, Mother's Day, teachers, grandparents, sympathy and thank you cards, especially combined with our new Happy Everything Tag Kit!
Kellie Fortin used the iris image in the Beautiful Day stamp set to create this Mother's Day card:
She gold embossed the beautiful border in the set to create a golden frame for the iris image. Then she used the tear drop corner dies from the JustRite Nested Sentiment Die set to embellish the top corners of the card and used the small double ended tear drop tag from the die set to frame the Happy Mother's Day Sentiment from the Happy Everything Tag Kit.
Kellie added texture to the leaves of the iris by adding Copic Colorless Blender solution to a paper towel and dabbed the leaves with the paper towel.
Sharon Harnist designed this set of notecards (another re-purposed dollar bin find!), using the other two floral images in this set, the snow drop and lily:
To color the white snow drops, Sharon stamped the floral image with black ink on white cardstock and then used Copic C1 & C3 to add shading to the white flowers. Rather than leaving the flowers just white, you'll be amazed at what adding a little shading will do for them! Sharon also airbrushed the background with Copic Y32 while it was still in the die -- having the background and greenery colors all around the white flowers will really make them pop!
A little Clear Copic Atyou Spica Glitter Pen makes the white flowers shimmer and Melon Glitter Pen was used on the stems. The border was stamped with Memento Rose Bud ink and the center was die cut separately and popped up on foam tape.
The lilies were colored to resemble pink star gazers -- using a very light Copic R000 to blend the R81, R83 & R85 colors on the lilies (not quite to the edges) helps make the outer edges appear white:
Take away a little more color around the outer edges, if needed, using Copic Colorless Blender marker. Lemon Copic Atyou Spica Glitter Pen was used on the stamens of the lilies. The border was stamped with Lettuce dye ink and then colored with Copic Y32. The outer embossed edge of the Spellbinders Classic Oval Nestabilities die cut was colored with R83 Copic marker. Light green rhinestones accent the border.
The pretty sentiment from this set was stamped by itself (without a border) on the insides of the cards.
Tomorrow we'll have a new stamp set to show you that you'll use all throughout the new year, so we hope you'll check back in!
