JustRite Friday Challenge: In My Thoughts

WOW! 20 days without blogging - SORRY~! Went on a business trip with the hubster to his President's Club event in Maui, Hawaii :) Only two full days there and about two days' worth of round-trip travel - LOL!! Had a great time with a full schedule BUT am so proud of my husband and his accomplishments!!


President's Club Awards Dinner

On to my post...I created this window card inspired by JustRite® Papercraft Friday Challenge #95 Window of Opportunity! The challenge is to create a card or project featuring a window that would reveal something underneath. Are you up for the challenge?! You have until next Wednesday, May 1st (7:00 pm U.S. EST) to submit!


先週のJustRite Papercraft Friday Challengeは、まだ行わっています。テーマは、ウィンドウデーカードを作る事です。 是非、挑戦して下さいね。5月1日(アメリカ東部時間19:00)までです~!

JustRite: April 2013 Release - Day 3

I am so excited to share with you JustRite® Papercraft April Release DAY 3 with Mr. & Mrs. Vintage Labels Four and Damask Wallpaper Background Stamp to create this box to hold any momentos of that special day!



今日はJustRite Papercraftの4月三日目の新スタンプセット(Mr. & Mrs. Vintage Labels Four and Damask Wallpaper Background Stamp) の紹介です。Mr. & Mrs. Vintage Labels Fourセットは、結婚式にいかがでしょうか?今回は、箱を作りました。


I found a box template online and used white cardstock that was stamped with Damask Wallpaper Background Stamp. The base was a pink patterned paper which I also used to stamp the Mr. & Mrs. Vintage Labels Four image on.


After I cut/embossed Frame One die, I stenciled the inside with ink and applicator for a soft blend of color.

For the stamped image and sentiment, I stamped first and then cut/embossed over them with Vintage Labels Four die for the image and Labels Four die # 2 (the smallest size being #1) for the sentiment. Then I adhered blings and pearls for accents before layering all the die cuts on the box top.


Here's a second look at the final project...

JustRite: April 2013 Release - Day 1

Welcome to Day 1 of JustRite® Papercraft April Release! We have a total of six sets to offer our stamping friends! Today's feature is Floral Thank You set and I created a 4 x 5" Floral Ovals shaped card to go with this wonderful set!


4月の新しいスタンプセット(Floral Ovals)の紹介です。一日目は、花のスタンプを使ってFloral Ovalsダイの形でカードを作りました。二枚のダイカットを使って、簡単に作れますよ~!是非、試して下さいね。

I used Spellbinders™ Floral Ovals die #4 (the smallest size is #1) and Lady Bug ink from TSUKINEKO/Imagine Craft to go with the Floral Thank You set = LOVE~!


To make the shaped card, I cut/emboss TWO Floral Ovals die cuts. Pick one as the back side of the card and score from the top about ¾" in. Place adheresive on the scored area, match the two die cuts together to form one piece and it's ready to be embellished.


These are the main components of the card. I stamped the flower image TWICE on white cardstock, fussy cut one for its blossom and then dimensionalized it with 3D Foam Squares. Cut the ovals for the stamped image and its mat with patterned paper using a combination of Standard Ovals LG die #7 and Grand Ovals die #2.


To finish, I stamped "Get Well" sentiment from the same set and cut/embossed with Vintage Label & Banner ribbon tail die. Adhered onto the card front and add red bling!
