Twofer Challenge

Every month I mean to enter Darnell's Twofer challenge and I think so far I've only managed it once! But this month I'm squeezing in at almost the last minute. The cue word is garden which made me think of the stamp from Little Claire (sadly no longer trading).

My first card is a sympathy card. Sadly I needed one recently for a crafting friend who died very suddenly and unexpectedly, and realise my box was empty and I do like to have at least one on standby.
I stamped simply in black and heat embossed it with clear powder. Diecut the image panel and mat with, I think, MFT dies.

My second card is a bit more cheerful. Again I stamped and heat embossed then coloured with distress markers. The sentiment is from Uniko.


And here are the cards  side by side.

Make My Monday In the Garden

The weeks are really going by much too fast! It seems to be no time since the last Make My Monday challenge and it's already time for a new one! This time Caz has chosen "In the Garden"

I used a freebie stamp set and embossing folder. I was very tempted to leave the embossed panel white as it was a really crisp image. But decided to ink it and hopefully give it a summery feel, especially as it was very damp and grey while I was making it. I sponged DI Mustard seed all over it, then daubed some Spiced Marmalade and Peeled Paint on the flowers and leaves. The sentiment and beed were stamped in  Versafine Onyx Black. A black mat and some green twine finished it off.

Do hope you'll be able to join in with is this week.
