About Eva:

"First of all, I am thrilled to return as a guest designer to JustRite Stampers!  I love stamping cards, layouts and 3D projects and it’s always such a pleasure to ink up JustRite Stamps!  I lead a busy life, but I always find time to stamp something pretty."

Just for You box details from Eva:

"I first cut a pillow box with my Silhouette machine out of cream card stock. I cut a panel from the flowery Crate Paper and two strips from the pink paper and I used my Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Doily Accents border die to cut my borders. I distressed my box using Ranger Vintage Photo Distress ink and adhered my panel and two borders to it."

"I stamped my label stamp from the Fancy Labels cling set and cut it out with the coordinating Spellbinders Labels Eighteen."

"I stamped my sentiment on a separate cream cardstock and cut it out with Spellbinders Labels Ten and layered it on top of my frame stamp. Finally, I added ribbon and flower to embellish it and adhered it to the box."

JustRite Friday Challenge 051: An Act of Kindness

Welcome to another JustRite Friday Challenge!  Before we get started with today's challenge, we wanted to keep our promise to let you know when the Spellbinders dies that matched our February release arrived in our warehouse.  They have, and are now available in our webstore!  They include Blossoms Three, Labels Eighteen, and Labels Twenty.  On each die description page, you'll find a link to the stamp set(s) the dies coordinate with!

This challenge #051 is to create a Random Act of Kindness card or gift to tell someone how much you appreciate them OR a thank you card for someone that may have bestowed a random act of kindness to YOU!

This week's grand prize challenge winner will receive: JB-09860 My Rainbow JustRite Original Ribbed large oval stamp set and CL-02100 Vintage Oval Labels cling stamp sets:

AND coordinating Spellbinders Labels Thirteen and Labels Eighteen die template sets:

For a total combined retail value of almost $82.00!

Three honorable mention winners will receive My Rainbow large oval stamp set:

To show you how well JustRite's Original Ribbed stamps intermingle and work well with our cling stamps, I used My Rainbow JustRight Original Ribbed large oval stamp set, combined with Vintage Oval Labels cling stamp together on this label for a vase of flowers I thought would cheer someone's day, as a random act of kindness:

 

First, I stamped the Original Ribbed My Rainbow sentiment with Memento Rose Bud ink, then I stamped the beautiful Vintage Oval Label stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored the label with these Copic markers, to match the colors in the hydrangea:

 

Using Spellbinders largest Labels Thirteen die, I cut and embossed the label, then sponged the edges with creamy brown ink.  I attached the label to some ribbon wrapped around a nicely shaped bottle I recycled and wah-lah . . . I have an instant pretty vase of flowers!

 

Here are more samples by our design team to help spark your creativity for this challenge.  Please click on each hyperlinked name to be taken to blog posts with full design details:
