JustRite Inspiration

JustRite for Easter!

Wishing you all a very happy early Easter from JustRite Stampers!  Here's a little Easter inspiration for you this week, in case you'd like to do a little seasonal home decorating, last minute gift-giving or card making . . .

For my Mega March Blog Hop project, I created these Copic airbrushed and colored Easter eggs.  The versatility of JustRite's stamps and the fact that they are unmounted, allows for you to stamp on just about any surface, even rounded wooden eggs!

I used floral images from JustRite's large oval stamp sets Beautiful Blossoms and Breath of Spring for my eggs.  You can find all the details of how I created these eggs on my blog, PaperFections.

JustRite design team member, Barb Schram, recently made these adorable Momma & Baby bunnies from recycled Valentine candy boxes!

Barb used the "cute as a button" sentiment from our Stitched With Love set.  You can find all the details of this cute project at Barb's blog: Explore, Dream, Discover.

Design team member, Kazan Clark, created this sweet egg card using Spellbinders' Nested Egg dies:

 
The darling chick and sentiment are from our Favorite Occasions set, which is still on our March Madness Sale until the end of today!  You can find all the details of Kazan's card at her blog, Nunu Toolies.

We'll be back with our regularly scheduled Thursday post of our Friday Challenge winners tomorrow, and then have a new challenge posted for you on Friday . . . we hope you'll check back in!

Angela used JustRite's large oval Thinking of You set for her main image.  This is a wonderful Sympathy-themed set which includes a general "Thinking of You " sentiment and a beautiful floral image that could be used throughout the year for other occasions:

For an accent, Angela used the "Have Faith" stamp from our 1-3/16" Tiny Words set:

 

You can click on over to Angela's blog for more details about her card.  Here's another sample for you from design team member, Michele Kovack, that could be used as either a sympathy or get well card, using that pretty floral image I mentioned:

Today's project is provided by JustRite design team member Sharon Harnist . . .

 

This is my ongoing monthly desk calendar project for this year, made out of 4-inch chipoard coasters hinged together with ribbon and covered with Webster's Pages new Life's Portrait Petite Papers.  I stamped the hydrangea from JustRite's 3-1/4" round Plant a Little Love set directly on some peach patterned paper from this pack and then colored it with the Copic markers listed below.  The flowers are accented with Fruit Punch Stickles (click on the photos for a larger view):

 

The sentiment is from our Joyful Hearts small oval set -- proof positive that you can mix and match all shapes and sizes of your JustRite stamps!  I faux stitched around the edge of this coaster.

The 3-inch calendar is a downloadable one I made and printed on cardstock, then stamped the month with JustRite's small oval Calendar Set in Dried Marigold Distress Ink.  Both the stamped image and calendar were die cut with Spellbinders Labels 11 set.

Follow the links to these designers's blogs, for more JustRite inspiration and leave a comment on each, for your best chance of winning!

Today's project is provided by Kellie Fortin . . .

For Day one of the hop on my personal blog, I used distressed inks to create my card in the more frequently used colors of distress inks.  For all the details you can visit my post here.

 

For Day Two, here on the JustRite Blog I thought it would be fun to play with the Daisy image from the Beautiful Blossom Set .  First I stamped my image in Memento Rich Cocoa and colored the daises like they were gerber daisies.

 
Can you tell I am anxiously awaiting Springs arrival? I was so excited to play with some of the new Spellbinders Dies just released at CHA winter. I just love how fresh the new oval shapes look when paired with our Oval Images. I diecut my image with the new Spellbinders Nestabilities Deckle Edge Classic Oval Large -Die 4 and distressed the edges with Antique Linen. By distressing the dry embossed edge of the deckled oval you can give extra depth to your card.  For the next mat layer I used the new Big Scalloped Oval Nesties to diecut Dark Outdoor Olive cardstock and then distressed the edges with Peeled Paint.

 
The designer papers are from the My Mind's Eye Home 6x6 paper pad.
