Justrite Friday Challenge #89

Anything Goes

This week's JustRite Friday Challenge is allowing just about anything as long as your project still has a JustRite stamp... ooops I forgot that we are also supposed to use our favorite stamp set and explain why it's our favorite.  Unfortunately, I don't own too many JustRite stamp sets to pick a favorite... at least, not yet

I decided to use one of the sketches from the weekly Card Sketch Challenge along with the Ad colors to make this simple card

The stamp is from "Whimsical Christmas" set by JustRite and the frame is from Spellbinders.  This is the first time I made rolled up flowers.  They are from Cricut cartridge: Art Philosophy .  I inked them before rolling them up then dabbed them with glitter glue. The stamp is heat embossed

Thanks for looking!

Sketch Challenge

 JustRite Friday Challenge has a sketch challenge this time around.  We didn't have to follow the sketch exactly but as long as it looked like it was inspired by the sketch, it was allowed

Here is my version of their sketch challenge... 

 

The stamp is from "Summer Words" set by JustRite and the frames and flourish are Spellbinders.  Staying as close to the sketch as possible, I used the diamond cut background from Cricut Wild Card cartridge.  The flowers are 5 layers of Fiskars flower punch made into roses and the lace trims were given to me by a My Sheri Crafts Design Team sister, Charlotte

Supplies used:
Card size - 4.25" x 5.5"
Papers - Close to My Heart
Fiskars - flower punch
JustRite - stamp
Spellbinder - frames and flourish

JustRite Friday Challenge #83

Three's Company

Here is my entry to JustRite Friday Challenge.  The theme this time is to use three different coordinating patterned paper.  The papers I chose is from the "Wings" paper pack from Close to My Heart... because they already do all the coordinating for you and this appeals to my laziness quite well

The stamp is from the Custom Cardmaking Kit by JustRite and then heat embossed.  The flowers are layers of 5 flower punch, covered with Perfect Pearls pigment, and made into roses.  The flourish and the butterfly are also covered with Perfect Pearls pigment.  Stitching is made with DMC floss

Card size - 5" x 5"
Papers - Close to My Heart

JustRite Friday Challenge #76

"Stars & Stripes"

This week's theme at JustRite Friday Challenge is to create a project using stars and stripes but not necessarily a patriotic theme.  Well, how about a Christmas theme?

Using only scraps and left over embellishments... I made another Christmas card to add to my stash.  The stars are actually charms and I cut off the connectors.  Three stacks of Spellbinder frames and I used heat embossing for the sentiment.  The sentiment is from the Whimsical Christmas Set collection by JustRite stamps.  I can no longer find this stamp set on their website to link it.  Maybe it's retired?

• Card size - 5.5" x 4.25" 
• Papers - JoAnn's
• JustRite - stamped sentiment and heat embossed
• Spellbinder - scalloped circle and circle frames

JustRite Friday Challenge #74

"Vintage Masculine"

This week's theme at JustRite Friday Challenge is to create a Vintage Masculine card... no idea how to make vintage cards since that's just not my thing.  I prefer bright vibrant cards with cupcakes on them!  LOL!  However, to support my friend, Sheri... I attempted to make one.

I wanted to make something that looked sort of old but also combine it with crisp clean embellishments.  That is the reason for all the black embellishments... they're sharp and clean looking and hopefully help the viewer focus on it more than the old crumpled paper.  Heee heee!  The sentiment "You are the Best" is from the Summer Words - Clear collection by JustRite stamps.

• Card size - 4.25" x 5.5" 
• Papers - DCWV 
• JustRite - stamped sentiment 
• Close to My Heart - black brads 
• Crop-A-Dile - for the eyelets 
• Tim Holtz distressing inks

JustRite Friday Challenge #73

"Anything But Square"

This week's theme at JustRite Friday Challenge is to create any shaped card as long as it's not the traditional square or rectangle shape.  I decided to use this hand shape from the Cricut cartridge Sentimentals because I've been wanting to use it for something... anything really!  LOL!

I had a lot of fun making this... got to use up a lot of things that's been sitting in my stash like the frilly lace I used for the sleeve cuff, tiny silk flowers, and the pearls.  I created the ring by heat embossing a strip of silver as the base of the ring and I cut off a brad to use as the diamond.   The sentiment "Save the Date" is from the Summer Words - Clear collection by JustRite stamps and heat embossed with silver.  The leaves accent is from the Botanical Butterflies - Clear collection also by JustRite stamps and heat embossed with green

• Card size - fits a 4.25" x 5.5" envelop
• Papers - DCWV
• JustRite - stamped sentiment and leaves and heat embossed
• Sizzix - leafy branches

This week's theme at JustRite Friday Challenge is to create a project using these colors: yellow, pink, and peach

I made this card using the color requirements but also with the extra credit requirement from this week's RAQ's Card Sketch Challenge using hand-made embellishments.  I made each of the flowers using Fiskars flower punch and each has 5 layers... ink, embossed, and painted with glitter.  The sentiment is from the Custom Design Cardmaking Kit by JustRite stamps and heat embossed

"Pretty Papers"

This week's theme at JustRite Friday Challenge is all about making your own background paper using any JustRite stamps.  I don't have any background stamps from JustRite, so I had to create my own using a 2" circle stamper and 3 different stamps from different sets.  I also used heat embossing to make it stand out a bit
