Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
Hey everyone! It's my turn to host the Technique Challenge and I hope you will join in!
Our technique today is to use your die cuts, and make them the focal point of your project: Minimal stamping -- use only a sentiment or small stamp for a background if desired. In other words, the main focal point should be a die cut, not a stamped image.

Oh my, this was so much fun... May have to do another.... I have a holiday today, this is the real reason that I got to play this early in the day... I hope that all of you have a great day...
Judy- love this challenge! I used a Christmas tree felt ornament, dressed up with buttons and adhesive gems, and my new Spellbinder's Lattice Pendant die, with red paper underneath. Finished with a luncheon napkin triangle vertical border. Here's Button Tree with Lattice

Judy- had to do another one, as we are getting closer to Valentine's Day- and I love red! I used some dc hearts from my stamping buddies- and my QuicKutz Nesting Eyelet Hearts die as the frame for my sentiment. Ran the background through my Big Shot with CB's Divine Swirls EF, then outlined the raised pattern here and there in gold. Added some dc buttons- Sizzlits buttons #5 die- and some buttons, bows and a pearl or 2. Finished with a deep purple bow. Here's Hearts Everywhere
