Triple Pane Bamboo Beauty with a masked moon

Two-toned cards can be especially striking and I think this Bamboo Beauty card done in greens proves the point.

I used just one color of ink here; Old Olive however the card base is Mossy Meadow.  I did stamp off once before stamping some of the images. I made this card in a recent FB Live video.  You can see it here.  Or scroll down to view it on my blog below. 

I started with a 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" piece of White CS.  I placed a post-it note mask made with a 1 3/4" circle on it for the moon before sponging and stamping.  It's really quite easy to do (see in the video)!

Afterwards I trimmed the stamped White CS into three pieces measuring 1 9/16th" wide. The tag is made with the Tailor Made Tags dies.

And here is the video where I share two more cards; scroll down to the end to see this card made.

• Gather Together Tag Punch Fun Fold

  October 16, 2020

  ---

  Check out this fun fold card Deloris made for a recent Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds from the 2020 Holiday catalog. 

  She used the Gather Together bundle seen here and the Scalloped Tag Topper punch seen here.

  Her colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso & Sahara Sand.  The tag punch is pushed in to create the design on both edges and then the sides are trimmed with a paper trimmer.  A really lovely design!  

  I'll be sharing more of my Team Fun-fold card swaps next week!

  Look at this super cute Fun Fold card featuring the Gift Wrapped bundle seen here!

  I LOVE the bright, eye-catching colors she choose; Granny Apple Green & Poppy Parade.  Can you see that she used both the Light & Dark colors in these Blends markers?  

  She also used the Wink of Stella on the punched bow and 'ribbon' on the front. See that cute baby tag?  That's part of the punch too! 

  Can you see how the front flap catches on the greeting on the left?  Love this!
