Hello everyone! This is Amanda from Twiddler's Nook. Today for Mix it up Monday on the Doodlebugs blog, I'm sharing a card design two different ways. Two different color ways for ink blending, two different ideas for a sentiment and two different orientations too! So many twos it should be Tuesday! (Bad dad joke of the week.)
Here's a look at both cards side by side. We're using the Waffle Flower Sunflower Cluster die and stencil combo with the Lawn Fawn Hello Fall sentiment die today.
For starters let's talk about the sunflowers. This card is light and bright. I did my ink blending on a white die cut with Lawn Fawn dye inks. They're happy and beautiful. Definitely giving that sunny vibe.
Believe it or not, this card is using Lawn Fawn dye inks but the die cut was made with kraft cardstock. I went heavier handed on the yellow inks to get the depth and added a darker shade of green for fun, it wasn't necessary.
Next, I cut my sentiment twice from white cardstock and twice from gold die cut foam from Spellbinders. This set is adhered with the white on top and a peek of the gold glitter. I also turned this card landscape instead of portrait.
Then for this card, I chose a portrait orientation and my sentiment has the flashy gold glitter on top. Different vibes for sure but both are gorgeous!
I did splatter the card front with gold watercolor before adhering the sentiments down because, well, sparkle.
Which style do you like better? Can you think of other products we could try this with?
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
