Another Twofer!

And Dare to Get Dirty week continues! You can view a Master List of all the Challenges Here, but you’ll need to be a Fan Club Member.

 

 

This first card was made for the following DTGD challenges: DTGD10JeanneS, DTGD10DeborahLynneS, DTGD10cindy_haffner, DTGD10flowergal36 and DTGD10justwritedesigns01. That’s a lot of challenges! I worked on this off an on over a couple of days and putting all the pieces together was really a challenge in itself.

All images are Sparkle N Sprinkle. Actually there are only 2 stamped images; the lawn chair and the sentiment. Everything else was done with punches and scissors.

The flower/sun and umbrella were both created using Quickutz scalloped flower dies and a chrysanthemum punch. The two bands of grass were cut with pinking shears then slits cut all along the tops. Greenery and flowers were also added. The sentiment was stamped on a leftover brayered piece and hand trimmed. A little butterfly was punched and a trail drawn with a black pen. Finished card measures 4.5 x 6.25 (A6).

Supplies:
stamps: Sparkle N Sprinkle
paper: white, dp ((green, lime, orange & yellow w/ dots- all Paper Studio)
ink: Ancient Page coal, Kaleidacolor Melon Melody
accessories: Quickutz cookie cutter flower dies., Martha Stewart fence, branch & chrysanthemum punches, butterfly & clouds punches (All Night Media), sm flower punch (EK Success)

This second card was done for the sketch challenge, SC290. Since Roxie based the sketch on this card I did last year, I couldn’t pass up making a card for the challenge. I was pretty excited when I saw the challenge.

All images are Our Daily Bread designs. I started with what I thought was a quick and easy idea: split the image over the three panels. Even with the SAMJ (stamp a ma jig), it’s harder than it sounds. But I finally got it to work.

The left and right squares were punched in opposite corners and each square was matted with black, then attached them to a larger ivory panel. I stamped the wheat image below them and added a larger black mat. The sentiment oval and black oval were cut with Spellbinders petite ovals. The finished ivory card measures 6.25 x 4.50 (A6).

Supplies:
stamps: ODBD
paper: ivory, black
ink: Ancient Page coal
accessories: spellbinders petite ovals, Marvy corner punch, SAMJ

    Fabulous works, both of them. The first one with it’s hot and cool colors and the utterly fantastic message in front of the picket fence is one I could enjoy looking at for a long time. The black and white layout is perfect for this stamp…that wheat looks specially designed for that area. Sectioning the top image sure adds interest. I hope I can remember some of this stuff when I wrack my brain trying to figure how to enliven whatever I’m doing! TFS
