I have used a stamp from Simon Says Stamp which has never seen ink before! On the first one I have used the whole of the stamp, coloured it with Zig watercolors and added a simple sentiment to the centre of the wreath. Just to be a bit different I stamped it onto a cream diecut rectangle from my bits box and aded it to a white card.
For the second one I used a diecut circle from my bits box , it's still overflowing though! I stamped part of the image twice, coloured it with Copics to match the background paper and fussy cut it out.
The flowers were then heavily winked to add some sheen, as was the sentiment.
I am going to enter the first card at Stamping Sensations, Cardz for Galz and also the NBUS challenge.

Two beautiful cards that at first aren’t apparent that they are the same stamp. Hope you are well. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteTwo super cards Sue, love the Cash effect of the first card and the lovely papers and design of your second card.

Two lovely cards, Sue. Great way of using the flowers for two different designs. xx
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards Sue! I love this stamp, I have a thing for wreaths for some reason. lol I love how you cut out the flower on your second card. You will also have to enter the NUBS challenge as well since this is a NUBS stamp set! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteI'm sending you several imaginary trophies for your mantelpiece, Sue! You did an EXCELLENT job using your NBUS, and using your bits, and using your pp, and entering Twofer!! I love both your pretty designs! That CASlicious birthday wreath is so pure and clean and your thank you card design is a beautiful composition with the circle sediment and anchored flowers over such pretty pp! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #27 and for sharing at NBUS! Take care and keep being alert out there. The world could use more lerts! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteTwo beaautiful cards Sue and I'm embarrassed to admit I have this same stamp set that I also have never used! Love how you made two completely different cards with it though with just simple changes, and great job on fussy cutting the flowers on the 2nd card too! Thanks so much for sharing with us at The Twofer Challenge!! :0)
ReplyDeleteIt's the nature of bits boxes that they will always be overflowing! I love that yellow and green against the cream, it's beautiful. x
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely flower designs, the single flower circle is beautiful in its simplicity. Your double flower card works so nicely with the patterned background. Thank you for playing along with Twofer Card Challegne.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely Sue. I do like that stamp. I bet you use it more often now you've seen how beautiful it can be. Love Dawn x
ReplyDeleteLove both of these makes hun, but the first is my favourite
