JustRite Background Stamp Blog Hop Day One- Harlequin Script

Are you ready for Spring yet?  I sure am!!  Yesterday I spent the day at the Portland Flower show,  dreaming of  Spring and the new flower gardens!We still have snow on the ground here in Maine but I am sure that it will be all melted by the end of the week- WAHOO!!  This week the JustRite Team has some spectacular projects showing off our new line of background stamps!! 

 

To create my card I stamped the Harlequin Script Background Stamp in three different colors and created a harlequin patchwork background .

 

 I used the FAB corner elements from the Musical Notes Labels Twenty Stamp set to frame the card by stamping that element in the lower light hand corner and upper left hand corner of my card.

JustRite Stamps:Harlequin Script Background Stamp,
Musical Notes Labels Twenty, Fleur de Lis Labels Twenty

Introducing At the Beach Oval Medallions

It's another day at the Beach for me!!  (at least in my studio).  For my card today I used the shell elements from At the Beach to create my own designer paper then used a dauber to rub in some color so that my paper wouldn't be stark white. 

 To frame my sentiment I used the Medallion Oval Frame from Just Keep Calm and filled the bottom of the frame with stamped SeaShells.

At the Beach Oval Medallion Labels is designed to coordinate with JustRite Custom Oval Medallion Dies.

 I used my Copic Markers to alter the color of my shell so that it would coordinate better with the colors of my card.

Project Recipe:
JustRite Stamps:At the Beach Oval Medallion Labels, Just Keep Calm
Just Rite Custom Dies: Nested Oval Medallion Label Dies,
Inks & Copic Markers:Tsukeniko Memento Tuxedo Black, Rhubarb Stalk 
Accessories: Seashell , Gold Rhinestones and trim.
I had so much fun playing with this set that I designed a second card using more paper from Webster's Yacht Club 6 x 6 paper pad.

And here is where I used the other half of the vintage crocheted lace trim on my card. Loving Tsukineko's new spritz walnut inking solutions!!

Introducing Warm & Cozy Medallion Cling Stamps

It's day five of the JustRite's CHA Release #1!!  For my card today I am showing you sneak peaks of one of our new backgrounds stamps - Stitched Ribbon Background Stamp and it's coordinating Classic Scallop Borders One - border stamps. 

Warm and Cozy Medallion Labels  is another cling set designed to coordinate with Nested Medallion Label Dies. 

Here is a sneak peek of Stitched Ribbon Background Stamps which is now in stock and shipping.

 

Classic Scallop Borders one is a new clear border set designed to coordinate with Spellbinders Classic Scallop Edgeabilities.  For my card I diecut the scallop edge first and then used the clear Classic Scallop image to stamp on the scallop die cut.  I found this to be easier than stamping the image and trying to determine where the die would die cut. Since the Classic Scallop Borders One Set is clear it was so easy to stamp to match the edge of the scallop. 

If you are not familar with how Spellbinders Classic Scallop Edgeabilities  set works the plain scallop die is the cutting die the other design elements allow you to create an ornate design withing the scallop.  Our stamp set is designed just to coordinate with the scallop edge cutting die.

Here is a close up of my card.

  

I stamped the Stitched Ribbon Background Stamp in Canteloupe and colored between the fancy ribbon stripeswith Y15 to give additional depth to the design iof the stitched ribbon background stamp.  One of the Classic Scallop Borders is designed to coordinate with Stitched Ribbon Backgrounds.

I die cut a terracotta Medallion Die Cut to mat my Warm and Cozy image.

Project Recipe:
JustRite Stamps: Warm & Cozy Medallion Cling Stamps, Stitched Ribbon Background Stamps, Classic Scallop Borders One
Just Rite Custom Dies: Nested Medallion Label Dies,
Spellbinders Dies: Classic Scallop Edgeabilities
Inks:Tsukeniko Memento Canteloupe, Rhubarb Stalk
Copic Markers: E13,E95,R22,Y15
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Natural White, WorldWin Doublemates Terra-Cotta
Accessories: Memory Makers Embellishments

Introducing Always & Forever Medallion Labels

 If you are a regular reader of my blog you know I love Butterflies -- so I was so excited when I found this gorgeous butterfly paper  from Graphic 45 -Botanicabella 12 x 12 Paper Pad.  So of course I couldn't resist making a card with this paper.

 

I created my own Custom Nestabling to frame my Nested Medallion Label Die using Silver Nestabling Squares.  The I used the largest Nestabling Square which was the perfect size for our largest die.  And then I cut corners off one of the extra square sets of Nestabling.   My original Nestabling was silver/clear and I used a copic marker to get the correct shade for my card. 

 

Always & Forever coordinates with Nested Medallion Label Dies

 

 

 Just love how the Spellbinders Floral Doily Motif large dies frames our Nested Medallion Label Dies and how the small die from that set fits inside our elegant vintage frame.

 

 And I am absolutely over the moon in love with the new Cloissone Bronze Flowers from Prima!!

 

There are 6 flowers in the set and I just purchased mine at Hobby Lobby this week.

Happy New Year!! JustRite CHA Release #1 Day One- With Sympathy

Welcome to Day One of the JustRite CHA Release #1 - we have 21 New Clear and Cling Stamp Sets plus 2 New JustRite Custom Dies to introduce for CHA. This week and next we will be sharing with you stamps from  CHA Release #1 with a few sneak peaks of background stamps and border stamps from CHA Release #2.

For my card today I am featuring a new background stamp called Harlequin Script Background stamp (which is a Sneak Peek from Release #2) and a frame and sentiment from our new With Sympathy Set.  I used a Fabulous botanical piece of paper from Graphic 45's  Botanicabella Collection 12 x12 Pad as my inspiration for the color theme of my card. 

With Sympathy is a large format clear set that is 6 x 8!!  You will absolutely love this large size clear stamp set. 

The frame from this set coordinates with our new Nested Oval Medallion Label Dies manufactured for JustRite exclusively by Spellbinders.

I used Spellbinders Labels Twenty One to mat my Nested Oval Medallion Die which allowed me to show off the beautiful Harlequin Botanical Paper from Graphics 45.

Here is a close up of my card so you can see how I used the background stamp in the center of my frame.  First I stamped and die cut my With Sympathy Frame image twice.  I cut out the center oval from the 2nd frame and used this frame to mask the die cut frame for my  card.  so that I could stamp my background stamp in the center of my stamped oval frame.  Love the effect it gave me for stamping my sentiment on.

Introducing JustRite Cling Background Stamps

Today I am very excited to share with you JustRite's newest cling products - background stamps. 

You will find yourself creating wonderful designer papers with these stamps - over an over again !! Now when you need a specific color of designer paper you can create your own!!

For my card today I wanted to really show off the Vintage Wallpaper Background Stamp, so I stamped the Vintage Wallpaper Background stamp twice - once in cantaloupe, once in tangelo.  Then I die cut both images at the same time with Classic Scallops Edgeabilities to ensure that the pattern repeat would match when I cut apart the tangelo image to create a stripe on the cantaloupe image. I was very careful when I cut apart the tangelo image to match the repeat so that it would appear to the eye as one piece of paper with stripes of color.  This creates a warm and summery background for my Botanical Butterflies image. 

Next I inked a small area of the background stamp with pear tart to create a background paper to stamp the "Just A Note" Sentiment from Musical Notes and then I die cut it with the tear drop tag die form JustRite Nested Sentiments and Dies.

 Project Recipe:
JustRite Stamps: Vintage Wallpaper Backgrounds, Musical Notes Labels Twenty, Botanical Butterflies
Dies: Spellbinders Lacey Circles, Classic Scalloped Edgeabilities, JustRite Nested Sentiment Dies
Inks: Memento- Tuxedo Black, Dandelion, Tangelo, Pear Tart, Copic Markers -
Y13, Y35, YG13, YR03
Paper: Cosmo Cricket Something Blue, WorldWin Doublemates -Graceful Geranium; Neenah Classic Crest Natural White
Accessories:Prima Flowers, Gold Rhinestone 

I personal love the simple elegance of our next background release image - Scrolled Vine Background Stamps.  With this background stamp you can create a stunning Wedding, Christmas, Anniversary or Thank You card in a matter of minutes.  Wait till you see all the fabulous projects the design team created with this set!! 

 For my card I wanted to create a pastel and gold wedding card.  The image was stamped with Danube Blue on Neenah Classic Crest Natural White and them I colored the background with shades of pale yellow and the scroll work with shades of coral.

To give my background stamp a warm glow I distressed the edges and the area above and below the solid stripe with Rosebud Ink and a Jumbo Dauber.  Using plum ink and a sentiment from Wedding Nested Sentiments - currently on sale for just $5.00 while supplies last!! Next I added the ruffled ribbons -- one layer of pink, one layer of yellow and you will notice I alternated there orientations when I added them above and below the sentiment.  For some bling I added gold glittered rhinestones and a gold glittered flower from Prima. For the final touch I die cut the leaf element from gold foil.

Greetings from Paris - JustRite September Release

 It's Day Two of JustRite's September Release over at the JustRite Blog.  Today I am introducing Greetings from Paris.

 

 The Paris Subway Art Label from Greetings from Paris  is designed to coordinate with Spellbinders Die Template S4-190 Labels Four and JustRite Customs Nested Frame Dies (the Postcard Element is designed to be Die Cut with the Largest Rectangle Die).

The Shabby Chic Flourish is perfect for adding a Shabby Chic Flair to your projects.  For my card I started with A Shabby Chic Notecard Set that I purchased at the Dollar Store.  I cut off the Front of the card and matted it with Kaiser Kraft Paper.  Then to give it it's Shabby Chic Flair I stamped the Shabby Chic Flourish with Rhubarb Stalk.

 

 I also stamped the Parisian Subway Art Label in Rhubarb Stalk and then distressed it using New Sprout to give me an overal base distressed color then I added some Rosebud distress to the right hand side of the image.

The Clock and the Key are Boy Bunny Trinkets that I white washed with paint to give them a more feminine feel.

 

Thanks for stopping by!!  The designe team has an absolutely amazing set of projects using this set!! You can see them all on the JustRite Blog plus you can visit their individual blogs for all the Shabby details.  the design team will be back tomorrow with projects using Shabby Chic Labels Four!!
