I have a new card to share using JustRite’s newly released limited edition, Witch Way To the Treats.   This set uses the 1 3/16 " mount and has 10 centers and borders.   I found with this set that you can basically keep stacking shapes to make the medallion as large as you like.  If you are using it for a small tag – then one or two layers is nice.  If you are using it for a card, why not add many more concentric layers to bring the size up for a larger focal point?   Better yet, using both scales you can create the card then the matching tag with the sizing on this set.

I used the following layers to make my focal point, working from the top to the bottom:
1 " EK Success Punch (JustRite Center)
Spellbinders Standard Circles Large #2 (JustRite Border)
Spellbinders Scalloped Circles Large #1
Spellbinders Standard Circles Large #3
Spellbinders Pinking Circles Large #3

I’ve put a number on the end of each die template to identify which of the templates I used out of the set as shown below.  With my die templates nested, I count from the smaller center to the larger outside templates.

I tied two ribbons together tacking the first one on top of the other with a little bit of glue runner then tied a bow and added a couple of bling for a simple card.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  JustRite – Witch Way to the Treats
Paper:  My Minds Eye, Bazzill
Ink:  Versafine Black Onyx
Accessories:  Spellbinders Standard Circles Large, Spellbinders Scalloped Circles Large,  Spellbinders Pinking Circles Large, Ribbon, Paper Shapers Photo Corner Scallop, 1" EK Success Punch

More to come, soon!

    You are truly the bow queen. Really a cute card and your being the guest designer of JustRite made me look at them for more purchases. I was going to comment on Patricia’s reply but this isn’t the place. You know who you are and what you do and why. You make the best cards I’ve seen and I’m a true fan.

Well, put your challenge hats on folks.  JustRite is the host of the challenge this week at 2Sketches4U!!  The winning card get s a $100 JustRite Certificate – I’m just sayin’.  I’m blogging from my hotel room hence the brief post, and wanted to share the card that I contributed for the challenge using the JustRite Thinking of You set.  The recipe for stacking the ovals is the same as I used yesterday.  Again, the oval perfectly matches Spellbinders Classic Ovals, Small which I used for the sentiment and the Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Oval, Large followed by the Spellbinders Classic Ovals Large.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  JustRite Stamps – Thinking of You
Paper:  My Minds Eye – Tres Belle, The Paper Company
Ink:  Colorbox Chalk Ink – Pastel Pink
Accessories:  Spellbinders Classic Ovals Large, Spellbinders Classic Ovals Small, Spellbinders Scalloped Ovals Large, Pearls, Ribbon

 Thanks for stopping by!!

    Hi Becca,

    Wow! Another gorgeous card.

    My dear neighbour just lost her husband. She is so broken hearted. I can’t imagine what it must feel like to loose your spouse after so many years together.

    Your card today, inpsires me to try the soft colors of pink and white and the sentiment would be just the right one too.

    Thanks for sharing!

Greetings!!   I have a quick card to share with you and I’m excited to say that it’s a new release set from JustRite.  JustRite’s Autumn Blessings set has 6 borders and centers and after seeing it, it’s making me yearn for fall.  (Did I really say that?)  I did not use traditional fall colors here because this stamp can be used year round.  Several of the other images in the set give you the flexibility to be used year round, but when you see the artwork I’m sure you’ll be able to imagine the glory of fall colors – you can see it here.

Autumn Blessings is used with the oval 1/4" x 3 1/16" mount.  This oval perfectly matches Spellbinders Classic Ovals, Small which I used for the sentiment and Spellbinders Classic Ovals, Large which I used for the border.  I layered this pairing on top of a Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Oval, Large – how cool is that!!  The whole medallion is layered on top of one of the new Spellbinders releases, Spellbinders Labels 9.   

Tip:  Many of you ask exactly which ovals I used.  With the sets nestled together with the smallest on the inside, count from the center to the fourth largest die template (out of five) on the Classic Ovals Small, the Classic Ovals Large and the Scalloped Ovals Large and you will match the pairings I’ve shown above.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  JustRite – Autumn Blessings Set
Paper:  The Paper Company, Paper Loft – Grandma’s Attic
Ink:  SU Always Artichoke
Accessories:  Spellbinder Labels 9,  Spellbinders Classic Ovals Large, Spellbinders Classic Ovals Small Ovals, Spellbinders Scalloped Ovals Large, Pearls, Ribbon

CHA Bound!  I know, I’ve said that every day this week.  Can you tell I’m excited?

    You ALWAYS have such nice cards, and I love the bows. How do you get them so perfect? Do you use that bow easy thing, or what. and what size ribbons. These are much larger than I usually work with. On a recent contest, they asked us to name someone who’s art we’d most like to be able to reproduce, and guess what – naturally your name was top on my list!ReplyCancel

And it’s every time you post. You have cornered the market on pretty. I think what does it for me is the way you layer things. And, of course, I need more Nesties to ATTEMPT to do that. Thank you for giving me something to inspire me to hop out of my rut. Have a grand time at CHA!ReplyCancel
