Welcome to the studio! Today I am playing with Twofer Card Challenge-we are to create 2 different designs for 2 different occasions using the same stamp, stencils, and/or dies. The theme for this challenge is Garden. I am using a stamp from Italian Garden set by Marcell Hawley in both of my cards, one a Christmas design and the other an any occasion card. I was inspired by my herb garden.
For the Christmas Card, I stamped the pot of Oregano without the tag with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics and Memento Marker. I added pearls (Colored with Red Copic) for ornaments and glossy accents to the pot. ( This reminded me of a holiday gift plant that you might order online. ) Other supplies: Sentiment from Penny Black, Memento Red ink, White CS, DCWV Christmas Basic Pattern Paper, Spellbinder Die.
For the second card, I used more herb stamps and sentiment from the Italian Garden set. I stamped the Herbs with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with Copics and Memento Markers. My first stamped layout did not work so I fussy cut the images and arranged on a background of Pattern Paper from Graphics 45 Secret Garden pad. (Thought this paper was appropriate for a garden challenge)
Other supplies: GKD Fresh Asparagus and Ivory CS, Versamark Ink, Seafoam White EP, Spellbinder Label Dies
