Today is the 22nd and it is Double Duty Day! This is the 64th month, so we are now into our 6th year! More Doubling Up!
Each month, we get to pick a stamp set from a predetermined company. Then, we will use that one stamp set and make two cards from the set. Different images and sentiments from the same set can be used, or use the same image two different ways—Double Duty either way! But, as an added challenge, one item must be used on both cards—same color cardstock, same ribbon, same stencil, same something. Double Duty Again! We will post both cards on our blog on the the 22nd of each month. See-Double Duty again! We will be sure to have fun getting doubly inky each month with a different stamp company. Let’s have fun!
For May we are going with Waffle Flower. This is a fun company as they offer so many different cardmaking items. I have a few of their sets as it is a new company to me.
I picked a pretty floral set called Daffodil. There is a stamp set, matching dies and stencils. There is not a sentiment in the set, so I picked two from my stash. I ink blending the stamped images with Taylored Expression inks and used the matching die to cut the daffodil stem. I added some Pinkfresh Studio Sunshine Jewels on both cards.
For this green card, the embossing folder is from Tim Holtz-Sizzix called Cobblestone 2. I die cut a piece of vellum from a Spellbinders Stylish Ovals Die.
For the white ard, the back panel is a Brass & Bliss Nested Woodgrain Sign. I added some twine at the bottom of the image.
Please be sure to check out the other Double Duty cards. Here is a link to Jeanette's, Darlene’s, and Terry's blogs. I am sure you will not be disappointed and will see a couple of sets of great cards.
Next month we are going to highlight Taylored Expressions--probably my favorite company! This company makes such fun products. So be sure to check out our cards on June 22nd!
