First of all, here are the cards I've made for the latest Twofer challenge.
The stamp I've used is an unmounted one that came in a RAK many years ago. It says "Third Coast" on the back so I presume that's the manufacturer. For the first card, I used Versamark ink and clear embossing powder to stamp it randomly over the pink card and heat emboss it, then added a sentiment stamped on vellum and held in place with glue dots behind the heart shaped pearls.
For the second I heat embossed in black on red then attached it to a panel of Bazzill embossed card. The finishing touches are some ribbon from an NBUS reel (odd how the stuff with hearts on tends not to get used in this house!) and a peel-off sentiment from La Pashe.
Now a closer look at the cards on their own
I'm sharing this one with
Sweet Stampin - Girly
And I'm sharing this with
Allsorts - Love is in the air
AAA - All you need is Love
That is a great stamp and it looks so different on both cards. I love the ribbon and the design you used with it. Fantastic cards for this challenge.
ReplyDeletePerfect for the two-fer challenge! The stamp looks completely different on each card, Jo x
ReplyDeleteThose sketchy floral stamps are all the rage right now so this old stamp is new again, Jane! I love that you stamped with Versamark and clear-embossed the hearts to make your background. That was one of the first techniques I remember doing - just stamping an image using nothing but the Versamark ink, without the embossing. Thank you for reminding me how much I love that look! And your anniversary card is so awesome, I don't know where to start! I love the texture of the card base, then the texture of the embossed swirls which mimic the swirls inside the heart, then the popped-up pretty heart, and finally, the heart-ribbon-borders of the sediment ... all of it makes for a really lovely design! Thank you for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #2!! Hugs, Darnell

Love the pink and textured embossing of #1. This image looks so different with the treatment you've used on #2 with the red & black. Love the swirly embossed background, and the heart design on the ribbon borders! TFS
