Two Color Ways

 


Easter's almost here and I still need a few more cards.   So today I made two cards with the same image and layout.  I am not a fast card maker unless I have it all planned out.  In this case the first card took a some time but the second card was pretty quick.  The images were colored with different patterned papers in mind.










Here's the deets:
stamp - Saturated Canary "Easter Dress" digi
ink - hp printer
paper - Stampin' Up "Perfect Plum"card stock; My Mind's Eye "Miss Caroline - Fiddlesticks" dp; Recollections "natural" card stock; My Favorite Things "Sour Apple"; Recollection "Green" card stock; Bazzill "Pollen" card stock; My Mind's Eye "Miss Caroline - Howdy Dowdy" dp
miscellaneous - copics; Stampin' Up eyelet border punch; Martha Stewart grass border punch; bling; pearls; divine twine; bunny charm
 
Here's the challenges:

    Those are both so cute. It's amazing how different they look. I like the colors on the yellow one and how you colored the hair on the purple one. Fabulous job! Thanks for sharing at Craft Your Passion. Hope to see you again.

    Hi Chris - these are both lovely cards, and I'm amazed by how the colour scheme totally alters the way a card looks. My favourite is the lavender coloured card. Thanks for sharing yours card at Whoopsi Daisy this week.

    Hi Chris, oh these are adorable! I love your colouring, it's perfect, and your colour choices are fabulous too. I am not the fastest of card makers either - don't know how some people manage to blog a card a day - if I did that that's all I would be able to manage in a day!!!

    Thanks for joining in with us this time at The Cutie Pies.

    I love the colour scheme on both of these cards, but I think the yellow and orange is especially spring like. Thank you for entering our Fussy and Fancy Challenge. Sam
