Love is in the Air.....

Hello dear blogging friends: There is a new and fabulous challenge out there in Blogland called TWOFER CARD CHALLENGE, this is the second one and I'm playing along.

The theme this time is HEARTS and the purpose of this fun challenge is to make 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT cards using the SAME STAMP IMAGE.

I'm telling you, Darnell who is the one who thought about creating this challenge, really want us to stretch our imagination and creativity and believe me, she has done just that!!

So, here is my TWOFER cards, hope you like them.

I used one of the images on the retired Stampin' Up! set called "Valentine Refined" to create both front panels on my cards.  On the one on the left, I die cut a wheel barrel with an Elizabeth Craft Design die set and sponged it with Baked Brown Sugar ink, then I stamped the little hearts image and placed the wheel barrel in front. The grass was stamped using an Art Impressions stamp.

I sponged the sky and grass with Distress Inks, the sentiment is from the set and it's stamped on a left over die cut cloud.

The card on the right was done using one of the dies from a retired SU set called "Ornament Keepsakes", I cut the ornament and then stamped the image, the "Peace" word is die cut using the Penny Black "Love and Joy" set. Pattern paper is from a retired line from Lili of the Valley.

***********************************************************************

This is how the INSIDE of my cards looks like.

The sentiment on the left is from a discontinues Flourishes set called "From the Garden", the string of hearts on top is from the "Valentine Defined" set, the bucket and gardening tools are also from the Elizabeth Craft Design die set.

The sentiment on the right is die cut with a die set from Penny Black set called "Peace and Joy", the stamped sentiment underneath is from a Power Poppy set called SPICE IT UP, I just used the top.

I would like to play along with the following challenges.
