Introducing Easter Blessings with guest designer Darsie Bruno and the JustRite Design Team

A Special Thank you to this week's guest designer Darsie Bruno!!  We have been so inspired by all your projects Darsie!  Today Darsie has a wonderful JustRite Easter Basket filled with JustRite Easter Eggs! 

Today's projects from Darsie and the JustRite Design Team using Easter Blessings are SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!!  Be prepared to be BLOWN AWAY!!

Here's Darsie: 

 

 Instructions:
Basket:  Stamp a Lace Border on cardstock with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Make 16 and cut as strips. (See photo for reference) Put eight strips aside and glue 4 strips to the remaining 4 strips end to end. Next, cut the eight strips you set aside in half.

To weave: Lay all 4 long lace pieces parallel to each other and taking the short pieces, start weaving in and out. You will have an overhang, but do not cut these off. They will be your tabs to attach the bottom of the basket.

Once you’ve finished weaving, glue the ends together to make the basket form. Fold the tabs. Cut the largest Classic Circle die and attach basket form to circle with tabs. Cut circle to fit. Cut a smaller circle to fit inside the basket to cover tabs.

Handle: With the Classic Scallop Edgabilities, cut out a strip with scallops on both sides. Add decorative cuts with the Decorative Insert from Triple Classic Scallops Edgabilities. Attach to basket. Decorate handle with pearls and ribbon, then wrap tulle around handle and adhere to inside of basket at edge.

Basket edging:  Stamp four strips of a different lace border with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Adhere two strips to top outside edge of basket. Adhere the other two strips on inside of basket, hiding basket handle edges. Decorate with pearls, a tulle or ribbon bow and Prima roses.

To fill my basket I created 5 JustRite Easter Eggs using Easter Blessings.

Here are close up's of my five eggs.

Eggs: Cut 5 pieces of cardstock/decorative paper  4 x 6 inches and fold to 4 x 3 inches. Lay Egg die just to the left of the fold line and cut. This will make an egg card. Emboss with embossing folder, stamp images and sentiments from Easter Blessing stamp set on scraps of white cardstock, and decorate. Fill inside of Egg card with bagged candy or bite-size chocolate bar and tie with a ribbon.

Here is a look at my Easter Basket filled with eggs.

 Project Recipe:
JustRite Stamps: Lace Borders Cling, Easter Blessings Clear Stamps
Dies & Embossing Folders:Spellbinders Edgeabilities Classic Scallop, Classic Triple Scallop, Classic Circle, Egg
Paper: Decorative Papers, Cardstock
Accessories: Various Embossing Folders and Recollection Pearls, Prima Flowers, Silk Ribbon and Tulle, Bagged Candy or Bite-size Chocolate bars

Introducing Classic Scallop Borders One and Spring Words with guest Designer Darsie Bruno and the JustRite Design Team

Today we are kicking off our CHA Release #2 reveals!! We will be featuring sets from our CHA Release each of the next 5 Days -- including reveals on both Saturday and Sunday!!  At CHA we introduced 21 new stamp sets and 2 custom dies.  In January, we featured the first 8 Sets with sneak peaks of background stamps and borders. 

Today our guest designer Darsie Bruno is kicking off the project reveals for Classic Scallop Borders One and the design team will be showing off Spring Words and Classic Scallop Borders.

Project Recipe:
Stamps: JustRite Classic Scallop Borders One Clear Stamps
Dies:JustRite Custom Dies Oval Nested Labels Medallions Die; Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Square
Paper:Double-side Patterned Paper (I used My Mind’s Eye Bohemia)
Ink & Markers: Ranger White Embossing Powder, TsukenikoVersamark Watermark Pad; White Gel Pen
Accessories:White Tulle;Recollection Pearls; Decorative Bird

Here is Darsie's pattern for her birdhouse:

Instructions:

Cut birdhouse out with pattern on  12" x 12 "Double Sided paper. Fold on dotted lines and cut on solid lines. Cut a separate strip of paper, 3 x 1 inches out of the double sided paper and fold in half lengthwise. This is your tab to connect the birdhouse panels.

Cut center out of the birdhouse using the smallest Oval Nested Labels Medallion die. Cut #2 Oval Nested Labels Medallion out of double sided paper. Center the smallest Medallion die on that piece, and cut out the center (this makes the frame for the birdhouse hole). I left the smallest die on, then sponged ink on the inside and outlined it with a white gel pen. Attach to birdhouse using pop dots.

Put birdhouse together using the tab. Cut Fleur de Lis Square out of double side paper and attach to a slightly larger panel. Glue bottom tabs of birdhouse to Fleur de lis square panel.

 

 Roof and Shingles: Stamp a border on doubled side paper with Versamark and emboss with white embossing powder. Make 10 and cut out scalloped edges. Arrange 5 on top of each other to resemble shingles and glue. Make 2 of these 5 stripe panels (this is your roof).

Cut a 5 1/4" x 4" panel from double sided paper, score and  fold at  ¼ inches and 2 ¾  inches. Glue ¼ tab to side of birdhouse for roof. Attach Shingle panels on both sides of roof. (One part of the roof is able to lift to add candy or a gift inside)

Eaves: Stamp a different border on double sided paper with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Make 1, cut scalloped edges, cut apart (as shown) and glue to eaves of birdhouse in the front.

Lower Birdhouse Border: Stamp a third border on double sided paper with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Make 3 and cut out scalloped edges. Adhere to the bottom of the birdhouse. Pierce a hole underneath the birdhouse hole for the perch. Make the perch by rolling 1 x 1 inch square of double sided paper tightly, gluing down edge, then inserting into pierced hole on birdhouse. Add pearls to decorate, tie a pretty tulle bow, and finish off with a sweet bird. 

 Classic Borders One is designed to coordinate with the Scalloped Edger cutting die from Spellbinders E8-001 Classic Scallop Edgeabilities

 The Classic Scallop Edgeabilities set features an Edger that cuts/embosses scallops at one inch wide scallops. The Decorative inserts are a lacey scallop and circles, both repeating at one inch intervals.

Classic Scallop Borders also matches the Scallop Die in Classic Edges One.

Spring Words is a great go to set for all your Spring Projects.  The words all have a vintage flair and will take you through all the Holidays from March - May!

Congratulations to all the winners!  Please email me to claim your gift certificates!

Today’s challenge is once again sponsored by Scor-Pal!  If you are not familiar with Scor-Pal (but we bet you ARE!) or have any questions about their products, you can find some general  basics about their fabulous scoring tools HERE and see all the products they carry HERE.

 

Are you ready to hear about this week’s prizes?  Two Grand Prize challenge winners this week will each receive a Scor-Buddy (shown above) with zippered storage pouch and Mini Self-Healing Cutting Mat ($26.95 combined retail value)!

In addition, those two Grand Prize winners will also receive our new JustRite Charmed cling stamp set & Charm custom dies (combined retail value of $44.90), for TWO Grand Prize Packages valued at almost $72!

We will also give away to THREE Honorable Mention winners our new Charmed cling stamp set ($19.95 value)! 

For your chance to win one of these fabulous prize packages, all you need to do is create a project using your JustRite stamps that either has a Spring or Birthday theme, that uses scoring of some type:  You may choose either:

1. A Spring or birthday card with coordinating envelope that you make yourself; OR
2. Spring or birthday gift packaging

To help with your projects, here are some links to various envelope tutorials on the Scor-Pal site:

Customizing envelope for any size of card

Scor-Pal Full Project Listing.

For my sample today, I chose to make a 5" square envelope, using these Square Envelope instructions from the Scor-Pal site, and this coordinating 4.50" square birthday card, using our Charmed cling stamp set and 1-5/8" round Birthday Centers:

 

I used my Scor-Pal to score and fold the 5" envelope from an 8" piece of heavy patterned paper.  The nice thing about using double-sided paper is that your envelope automatically has a pretty color-coordinated lining!

 

I also made a pretty "To and From" tag for my envelope, using our new Charmed cling stamp set:

 

My 4.50" square card was made with Spellbinders Scalloped Square Grand Nestabilities (smallest die).  See how nicely our 1-5/8" round Birthday Centers fit inside the Charmed cling stamped heart:

Introducing Beautiful Day

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!

Introducing The Greatest Joy & Happy Everything Tag Making Kit

Today we are introducing another beautiful floral stamp set, our large oval JustRite original ribbed, The Greatest Joy -- set of four interchangeable centers and four borders (flowers are crocus, rose & daffodil), retailing for $16.95: 

This set is currently in our warehouse and shipping!

Kellie Fortin used the pretty daffodil center from the Greatest Joy set plus the Easter sentiment from our new Happy Everything Tag Making Kit to create her Easter card:

The Happy Everything Tag Kit set (shown below) comes with 18 mini stamps for every "Happy Occasion" you can think of, plus four NEW JustRite Custom Spellbinders Tag Dies!  Throughout the next two weeks we will be showing you all the great ways to use this fun tag making kit.  We have a very exciting 2011 planned for you, so sit back and enjoy our new releases!
 

Kellie used JustRite's Buttercup Trio & Soft Green Quad Copic marker sets to color the daffodils, and BG000 from our Turquoise Trio for the background.  Y15 (from our Golden Trio) was used to color the embossed edges of the Classic Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities die cut and also to make the sentiment really pop on our die cut tag.  Kellie matted the Classic Scalloped Rectangle with a Labels Fourteen mat layer.

  
 
You will love all the mini sentiments in the Happy Everything Kit, they are just the perfect size to fit in our new tag dies in the kit as well as the perfect size for using with our small double ended tear drop die from our Nested Sentiment Dies.

Here is what comes in the Nested Sentiment Die Set:

 

Sharon Harnist used the wonderful sentiment center included in The Greatest Joy set, as the main attraction for a 3.50" square sticky note cover:

 

Isn't this a gorgeous font?!!  Sharon thought the pretty scroll border fit well with the Webster's Pages Petite Papers (Hollywood Vogue) she used, all stamped in classic black ink on pretty peach coordinating solid Webster's paper.  The sentiment was die cut with Spellbinders Classic Oval Nestabilities and then layered onto a black Scalloped Classic Oval die cut.

 

Sharon will have the tutorial for this quick project in our first Friday Challenge next year, so please check back for that on January 7!  We hope you'll return tomorrow to see another very "sweet" new stamp set!

Introducing Mother Nature's Gifts

This week we're getting ready for Spring and Valentine's Day here at JustRite Stampers, and will be introducing you to some beautiful new floral and general purpose stamp sets that you will use year round!  Here's the first, Mother Nature's Gifts, a 3-1/4" round JustRite original ribbed set of four interchangeable centers (the flowers are lily, dahlia, hibiscus) and four borders.  It retails for $16.95:

 

This set is currently in our warehouse and shipping!  Here's my sample with this set:

I stamped the Dahlia flower onto solid Basic Grey paper and then did a little shading with my Copic markers (colors are listed below).  The flower was cut out and popped up with foam tape over another solid die cut circle of BG paper, which was all layered into the center of the scroll border that I stamped with cocoa ink onto Neenah Natural White cardstock.  The edges of the border were sponged with Corduroy Distress Ink and pink Zva crystals added to the centers of the scroll work.

The "Thinking of you" sentiment center was stamped without a border directly onto the lower right card front.  Coordinating Basic Grey patterned paper was die cut with a Spellbinders scalloped border die and threaded with ribbon.  The card measures 4.25" wide x 6" tall.

We hope you'll be back to see another pretty floral introduction tomorrow!
