Hello dear blogging friends: The first
Twofer Card Challenge for 2019 is finally here. I've been participating since they started in January of last year, it's one of the best challenges out there, it's fun, challenging and it really gives your creativity a workout and, as an added bonus, my dear friend
Leslie Miller from "Running With Scissors a new member of this awesome team, Congratulations Leslie. The theme for this month is BIRDS and here are the cards I made to participate.
One of my 2019 resolutions is to use my totally neglected, beautiful older stamps. I don't mean the ones that are like a year old or two even, no.....these sets are at least 10 years old!!
This one is a Stampin' Up! set called "Nature Walk" and it came out back in the Occasions Mini in 2011, the images are so vintage and detailed, it's a shame I haven't used them in such a long time.
Here are the pictures of each card.

Simple, I just stamped the Robin and the eggs on watercolor paper, colored them with SU markers and fussy cut them, the flowers in the background are from another old stamp from Penny Black called "Aspire", no idea when I bought it, the pattern paper and ribbon and twine are from my stash, the sentiment from a Power Poppy set called
Daffodils.

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The sentiment and image the same as in the front panel.

This is my second card.
I stamped the Robin on watercolor paper and colored it with SU markers, the pattern paper is from my stash and the sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called
Simply Camellias.
