Two Cards One Design

Posted on | June 19, 2008 | 5 Comments |

I got two cards put together. Yeah!!! This first one I did Tuesday night and the other one, the blue cardstock base, I did last night. They’re super quick cards because I was only in my craft room for a few minutes. I smuggled myself in there {::SMILES}.

As you can see they’re super simple. The material for this tan card is:

Paper: SU Kraft paper
Ribbon: Offrey grossgrain
Ink: Chocolate chip
Stamp: A*Muse Clear stamp and SU Dots

I created this card for my blog sisters’ swap BUT, I fail to remember the theme: SUMMER. So… no can do. This looks awefully, fall, don’t you think? One thing about this stamp set… I LOVE A*Muse’s clear sets. They stamp SOOOO well!! They’re not like some clear stamps where it just doesn’t stamp clean, which I hate. I want to buy more!

Due to my lack of attention to details, I have to think of another card design for my swap. Pressure, pressure! Due date’s the 20th!!

This second card I made just because although I might use it for another swap that I have here locally. Again, the theme is: SUMMER, and I think this is more summery than my first try. Yes?

The material:

Cardstock: SU Whisper White and Soft Sky
Ribbon: From Michael’s (on sale last week for $1!)
Stamps: SU’s Always, Dots, and PaperTrey
Ink: Regal Rose, Old Olive, and some blue one (ha, so bad me!)
Tools: Corner rounder for the scallops, piercing tool, and Stamp-a-Majig

These are just two items I want to share today. Two super simple cards that you can do under five minutes and with the right touch of ribbons they become more jazzy. Yes, I am a ribbon freak-o {::SMILES}.

I am quite behind. I have six swap cards to make and my scrapbook page for the Scrapperie contest. I haven’t even touched that last item. Ta-ta for now. More later!

I like them both! The brown and white coffee themed one has such a warm feel. I like how you repeated the dots in both sections of the blue card.

Very cute cards Savitri! I would have taken the first one in the swap, even though it is not necessarily summery, I still drink coffee in the summer, ha ha!
