Two-Tone Flora cards; get two cards with one technique!


I shared a bunch of projects featuring the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here on last week's FB Live video.  

I hadn't played with it at all and couldn't stop once I started!  Here are two cards that may look similar at first, but look closely….

The card on the left has the large, sponged & colored die-cut on the front.  But the card on the right is the colored layer underneath the other.  So cool!  I show how this is done with the small Blending Brushes in the video here.  

I used three colors for these cards – Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Calypso Coral. It also features Very Vanilla which I don't use often enough. I found the small blending brushed worked really well for the detailed areas on the die-cut. You can see these brushes here. 

Here are both cards with the actual colored die-cut piece on the front. 

I accented it with the Sentimental Park, Stylish Shapes and Amazing Thanks dies. Also a few Brushed Brass Butterflies finished the garden feel of these cards. 

Below are the cards that show off the area under the sponged die-cut.  The colorful sponging reveals the die-cut detail on the Vanilla but the flowers and leaf areas are colored. I love this 2 for 1 technique!  I'm sure you have some dies you could use like this too.  

The dies above include the Painted Label and Circle Collection dies; along with the Two-Tone Floral dies for the leaf. 

I enjoy using two-step stamp sets for the wonderful details and hues of color you can achieve.  

I hope you're inspired by this fun technique.  Click on the photo below to watch the video and see more cards with this bundle.

  • Neat Floral Delight fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    Can you tell that these cards are an extra special fun fold?  It's a bit sneaky how it works!

    I used the Floral Delight designer paper here along with the Floral & Gingham Vellum too.  The center piece is the vellum – the blue gingham and the yellow flowers on the right card. I used our Multipurpose Liquid glue to adhere it and it didn't show a bit! Use a very light hand for success here. 

    Here's how the card opens.  There's an extra score line on the front of the card that allows the center to fold back.  It's really simple but you may need to watch the video here to catch on.  

    Here's a look at how the card base is made without the front panel added. The upper & lower corners are simply cut off at 1". So simple with a surprising effect! 

    For the greetings I used the Mixed Labels bundle seen here.  I love the stitched dies and the greetings in this bundle. I've used it so often. 

    I created a free project sheet for this card. Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Floral Delight Fun Fold Feb 25

    Below is the video tutorial for this card. I hope you watch it to learn the simple trick to this neat fun fold.
