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.

    EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

    PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

    Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.

    Today I'm sharing the second card I made during last week's Live video. See the video here.

    We made these beautiful cards at my July card clubs:

    This card has a 3" square of designer paper which means you can get 4 cards from one 6 X 6" sheet.  I layered the square with coordinating card stock and added it to a piece of textured card stock that had Boho Blue ink brushed on it with a Blending Brush. The colors are Boho Blue with Misty Moonlight & White. The embossing folder is called Distressed Tile. 

    The greeting and pretty butterfly die-cut are from the Sketched Butterflies bundle seen here.

    Did you know there's a simple way to turn a standard card into an easy fun fold?  Simply fold back the front layer of a card back to the score line. Then add your layers to that folded piece.
