The First Ever 'Twofer Card Challenge #1

I'm excited to be playing along at the Very First Ever 'Twofer Card Challenge', 

which just happens to be the brainchild of Darnell Krauss of djkardcreations.com.

Our challenge is to create 2 cards using one stamp, with a 'feather' theme.

Here's my 'twofer'

With the feathers and sentiment from Clearly Besotted: Fancy Feathers,

my 1st card could be for a special announcement.

My pink inks are the closest to happy brights as I could get, with

Tim Holtz' Distress Oxides: Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry,

Abandoned Coral & Candied Apple.

PTI Cardstock, Tag Sale #8 & Vellum.

Card 2

Same feathers from the Fancy Feathers set, this time a sympathy card.

White embossed and watercolored 

Banner: PTI's Stemmed Statements

Cardstock: PTI

Watercolor paper:Arches Coldpress

2 cards, same stampset. Brilliant challenge!

Check out this new card challenge, and all the inspiration from

the fabulous designers here:

and don't forget to play along. The winner gets to be a guest on a future 'twofer'.

Happy Crafting!

MIM #168 Pt. 2

Did I mention in my last post that this technique is fun?

Ashley created a simple card to highlight the watercolor effect from Baby Wipe Stamping.

My 2nd post is simpler than the first, and the white space is so summery!

Feather Finery and Birds and Blooms

The tiny fussy cut feather with the word, 'Feather', is from Waltzingmouse's Fine Feathers,

and hides a boo boo when I went to stamp the sentiment. (Sad face)

Re-inkers: Tropical Teal, Aqua Mist, Winter Wisteria, Plum Pudding, New Leaf 

& Simply Chartreuse
