My first Twofer of 2020......




Hello everybody: It was very hard to wait for the first Twofer Challenge theme for 2020 and, as usual, the talented DT came up with a fabulous prompt.
I'm happy to submit these cards for one of my favorite challenges.


And this is my first card.


I used two hearts punches plus the Postage Stamp (SU-retired) Punch to create this card.  The bigger heart is punched with a retired SU hearts punch, the smaller heart, with the Owl Builder Punch (SU-retired)
The sentiment is from an old Valentine's Day set from Flourishes called "Tokens of Affection"

*****************************************************
This is how the INSIDE of this card looks like.


The sentiment and banner are from a Flourishes called "From the Heart" (2015) 

**********************************************************
My second card is created with a super fun die set from SU called "Apron Builder", LOVE IT!!! that fortunately is still available and ON SALE!!



The pattern papers are from my stash and I used the same heart punches to decorate the apron and banner, the sentiment is stamped with a super old alphabet set from "Your Next Stamp".

This is how the INSIDE of this card looks like.


The sentiment is from a 2017 Power Poppy set called Tweet Tidings.

I would like to play along with the following challenges.

These are darling cards, Maria! That Valentine with the 'quilted' base looks amazing - love the four heart elements being hugged by your pretty ribbon. And that apron...! I have that set, and now after seeing what you've created with it, I'm going to pull it out and have a go! This is a fabulous card. Love all the minute elements you've used here. Two great cards. Thank you so much for joining us at The Twofer Challenge. Bev

I truly appreciate your kind words and enthusiasm, Maria! And I adore your two wonderful designs! Your Valentine is a textured and dimensional delight with the embossing, layered panels, and ribbon! Your second design couldn't be any cuter with that fun apron and sweet array of utensils! I love the sentiment, the great patterned papers, and the insides of both designs! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer's 2nd Blogaversary challenge! Hugs, Darnell
