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.
