TWOFER CHALLENGE #9.....LEAVES.....

Hello dear blogging friends: Ever since the awesome DARNELL started this fun and fabulously challenging challenge blog, I made up my mind of participating in every single one of them, I love the way she and the rest of the DT make all of us come up with two different cards, for two different occasions using the same stamp or die.
So here are my Twofer cards for this challenge.


Here are the cards individually, I'll list the "ingredients" under each one.


The leaves are from a Our Daily Bread die and stamp set called Autumn Blessings, the sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Feeling Fall, the ribbon from my stash.

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

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.


The sentiment is from a retired/discontinued Flourishes set called "Magnolias", the little leaf is from the Power Poppy "Feeling Fall" set. The lacy border is from a retired SU set called "Delicate Details".

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

My Twofer card.


This adorable little Fairy and her friend are from the Emerald Faeries Garden, the name on the rubber stamp I have says "Ally and Beeble". I stamped it on a panel of Blick Drawing Paper with Stazon Black ink and colored her with Prismacolor pencils. The leaves were stamped on the same paper and die cut then sponged with SU Hello Honey and Pumpkin Pie inks.  The sky was sponged with Spun Sugar distress ink. I purposely sponge the ink randomly leaving white spaces to resemble clouds.
The sentiment was on my stash of cut ahead pieces, but it's from the My Favorite Things Magical Dragons.

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

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.


The border is from SU "Delicate Borders", the sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called "Farmer's Market and the little flower in the corner is from a retired SU set called "Fast and Fabulous", which was a Hostess set from the 2010-2011 Catalog.

I'm linking this cards to the following Challenge.

We so appreciate your support every month, Maria! These two designs are terrific! I love the beautiful ribbon you used to balance your pretty tumbling leaves on your fall card and your fairy card is the sweetest! Brilliant to add the fall colored leaves as wings and they match so well with the flower! The sky is spectacular, too! And, as always, your completed inside designs are so pleasing! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #9! I hope your foot continues to heal! Hugs, Darnell
