Twofer

A One Layer CAS to share today.  

I started by masking off a panel and used Distress Ink and a Lavinia 'Laurel' stencil.  The images are from Stampin' Up 'Dragonfly Garden' set of stamps.  I painted them with the same Distress Ink used in the panel, mixed with a little water.  The sentiment is a Woodware stamp.

I am joining in the following challenges:
Inkspirational Challenge #275 ~ Technique - Use Stencils

A second card to share today, which I made for a friend's daughter a while ago and forgot to post on my blog.  I know the birthday girl loves sunflowers and music, so I incorporated both in my card.
The image is a VERY old wooden Butterfly Kisses stamp, coloured with Promarkers.  The embossing was done with a Crafts-Too 'Music Notes' embossing folder.  The Joy Fold card is kept closed with a flower brad.

I added a flower inside, made with punches.

I am joining in the following challenges:
Little Red Wagon Challenge # 673 ~ Birthday
I Love Promarkers Challenge #519 ~ Anything Goes without the option
The Flower Challenge #73 ~ Use a Sentiment & 6th Birthday

    Two fantastic cards Liz, and the first is so pretty with the flowers over the masked panel made with the Laurel stencil, and in that wonderful pretty blue colour, then the second shaped card with the fun singing sunflowers, and the dry embossed music notes go perfectly also I love the bright and beautiful colours, and your friend's daughter will have loved this. x

    Two lovely cards but I have to say your first one is more than lovely. It is so pretty with its pale blue and your inking, stenciling and stamping. Is it one layer ? or have you cut your panel to fit your card exactly? xx

      It’s one layer. I put two strips of masking tape down the base card so I could ink in between to make the panel. x

    Both of these are so pretty. Love the way you used the stencil on the first card - and the musical embossing folder on the second.
