 The Stay Crafty challenge for May is "Tea for two" - you could make a card with two things on it, but you could also make two cards for the price of one. I stamped this floral image once, cut the panel in half, and made two rainbow cards from the one stamped image.

 Today, I'm sharing a card for Paper Rose Studio.

I chose a piece of patterned paper from Rainbow Garden Basics and adhered it to a white card base. I stamped Teddy's Balloons in black ink and die cut it with the coordinating die. I coloured the balloons in a rainbow of Copic markers to match the colours in the patterned paper. I adhered it with foam adhesive and finished with a birthday sentiment from Super Day Sentiments.

 The new Stay Crafty Challenge on the Hero Arts blog is "Tea for two" - include two of anything! I made a card with an inky background, with two little birds, but because the background is half of the size of the card, I made two cards!

Inlaid Diecut for Paper Rose

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

 Today, I'm sharing two cards I made for Paper Rose Studio.

I started by cutting the Poppy Decorative Background die from white, red and pale blue cardstock. I adhered the white outline to a white cardbase, and using the diecut inlay technique, added the red ad blue pieces. I finished the first card with a sentiment from the Happy Birthday Lovely stamp set, white embossed on black ink. 

For the second card, I used the blue outline diecut as a stencil to add some pink ink to a second card base. I adhered the red outline diecut over the top of the pink in, slightly offset so that you can see the white lines. I finshed with a printed sentiment from Big Black and White Sentiments.
