One Design, Two Cards

Hello! Popping in to share a couple cards a put together using the same pattern from Make It from Your Heart, Vol. 4, but using different B&T papers and stamps.

I actually made this first card back in January while I was on a scrap and chat call with my good friend in California, but forgot to share it here. I used the bulk B&T Chelsea Gardens paper that comes with the Sending Hugs Cardmaking WYW Kit and pattern 13 from MIFYH Vol. 4. Our how to books make it fast and simple to pull a card together!


The wreath and sentiment are stamped with Charcoal Ink on the light side of Linen Cardstock. I painted the flowers and leaves by picking up ink (Glacier and Sweet Leaf) with a water brush and applying it to the image. Bitty Sparkles adorn the centers of each flower. I used the Thin Cuts- Basic Circle Tags to die cut the images and tied them to the ribbon with a strand of twine.


The inside is blank and ready for a personalized message.


A couple days ago, a friend of mine and her daughter came over to make Mother's Day cards. I used the bulk B&T Gimme Some Sugar paper from the You Are More Cardmaking WYW Kit and the same pattern to design a sample card.


Really, the only differences are the papers and stamps used. I paired a floral image from the It's A Date stamp set with a sentiment from the For You Darling stamp set. The flowers are colored with ShinHan Touch Twin Markers.


I left room for a handwritten message on the inside of this card as well.


Chelsea Gardens and Gimme Some Sugar will be going away at the end of this month. Watch for the new Seasonal Expressions to go live May 1st!
Thanks for stopping by today!

Supplies Used:
Get Well Card-
X5942 Basics Combo Cardstock (I used Mink and Linen)

Mother's Day Card:
ShinHan Touch Twin Marker P147 Pale Lilac

Color Dare #256 Hello Card

It's time for another Color My Heart Color Dare challenge. This week's colors are Black, White Daisy, Pomegranate, Peacock, and Juniper.

For today's card, I followed pattern 29 from the Make It From Your Heart, Vol. 1 guide. I knew I wanted to use the new For You Darling stamp set, but the sentiments weren't the right size for my design. The Hello sentiment from the Flourishes stamp set fit perfectly. I didn't want a patterned paper to compete with the succulents, so I opted to emboss and sand a few scored lines on Peacock cardstock for the bottom panel. The succulents are stamped with Juniper and Peacock inks. I used the masking technique to stamp Pomegranate and Juniper in the small floral outlines.



To give the card a hint of sparkle, I matted the sentiment with Black Glitter Paper. The Black Dots around the succulents integrate the black into the card design. The succulents and flowers are popped up with Thin 3-D Foam Tape.


A small succulent and flower carries the design to the inside as well.


Ready to play? Just create a project using ALL and ONLY the colors in this week's challenge. If you don't have the exact colors, use the closest colors you have. You have until 10pm EST Thursday to enter!
