March Madness from Angela

So here's my card for this month...
Talk about a challenge!! This card definitely
went through some serious re-working before
I was happy with the finished product.

You can't really tell in the picture, but
the hearts that are stamped on the kraft
paper have a subtle, glittery finish due to
two-steppin' with some Versamark 'Dazzle'
before I inked them up with the Pale Plum.
Obviously, the colours are purples and greens
and it is a birthday card...I missed a couple
birthdays while I was out West and so the
inside reads "Sorry I'm late. Happy Birthday!"
For all the card details, you can visit The Scrapyard.

This was a great challenge - totally had to don
my thinking cap for this one :) Thanks Marnie!!
I'm having a blast playing along with you gals - so
stay tuned for April's challenge, coming on Thursday!

Marnie's March Madness

I had a good time making this month's card. I pondered for a while, sat down and sketched out my idea, and then set to work. This is the result:

This is a 3" x 6" card. I embossed the flowers in the lower right-hand side of the card in green, two-step stamped the butterfly with two other shades of green, cut it out and popped it up on the card with dimensionals. Then I highlighted the flight pattern of the butterfly with some green 'bling' on the purple cardstock base. Simple little birthday card.

Gasp!!! I am the first one to post my March challenge. How did that happen?

Well here is my lovely card for this months challenge and if you would like to read all the nitty gritty details of what I used to create this card, then just jump on over to my blog.

Hope you like this and can't wait to see what the other Duke Design Divas have come up with.

Cheers,

Margaret :)

March Challenge

March is a great month. Sadly, it usually signals the end of Winter, but on the upside, it's my birthday month! Yippee for me! Please, no gifts :)

So, for March's challenge...

purple/green
birthdays
two-step

Your challenge is to make a birthday card that uses two-step stamping in some way, and uses the colours purple and green on it somewhere.

That's all. The rest is up to you.

Happy Stamping!
