Two for one--no scraps

Just playing around a bit today with the Flourish dies.  Today was the first time I used this die from the set and I loved both the negative and the die cut itself so of course I thought I would try to make two cards--one using each but keeping them both simple and the same colors and supplies.  I think they are both pretty cards.  Do you agree????


I really have to get out my photo taking supplies--I am not able to get good pictures by just setting them on my cutter 😒 I have one of those photo tents in one of these boxes with all the retired sets I have to go through and maybe sell?  I hate going through them though because once I see them again I love them again, lol.  No wonder there are literally hundreds of them!

Maybe you can get a better view of the cards in individual pictures......



This second card uses the retired diagonal scoring plate to make the old olive card stock match the first card.  I didn't realize it was retired  😕


Both cards look much better in person--I promise to look for my photo tent this week.  You can see all of the supplies used below and if you click on any of them it will bring you directly to my webpage where you can purchase any of the products you want/need! Or Click HERE to SHOP my WEBSITE And if you place an order for any of them be sure to use my hostess code for the monthHostess Code:    ANEDBKGKAll orders of any size using the hostess code above will get a special thank you gift directly from me and......Don't forget that order over $50 will also earn FREE items from our Sale-A-Bration Catalog

Wild and Soft Wisteria

Sounds like a crazy day or something likes crazy hysteria or wild Wisteria--but No........

It is just this week's color challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  Look at me!  Two challenges in a row.  Not bad huh?

So the colors that we are challenged to use are 
Wisteria Wonder, Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi 

Sounds like a pretty combo--and it immediately brought the Flourishing Phrases stamp set to mind.  Thought I would mix it with the rock and roll technique and see what happens. 

I was a bit bummed though because I could have sworn that the matching dies cut out the large flower--but it does not 😞

So I had to do a bit of Fussy Cutting--which is not one of my favorites.

I am alright with the card though---what do you think?

I feel like it will take a while to get back into the flow of designing--can't find anything and lots of my markers and pads are kind of dry--that may end up costing me a whole bunch.  

Anyway--enough yapping
here is my card for CC673
