Floral Frame Twice

Hi there!  Today I have two more cards made with the Stampendous Floral Frame stamp.  For the first card I did something a little different in that I stamped the floral part repeatedly to make a background.  The coloring is a little different, too.  It's Copics, but with absolutely no blending.  It's just simple and cheery.  The big "hello" is a Cottage Cutz, the hearts are punched.  I'll list everything below.




The next card is a quickie with more of the simple coloring.  I drew borders with a marker and punched the corners.  I don't know if you can see the subtle texture of the blue card base.  It was done with the new-to-me Subtle embossing folder from Stampin' Up!  I'm really loving that folder because it turns all my plain cardstock into textured cardstock.  I put the whole folded card in the folder so it's textured on all sides.



I have one more card for tomorrow and then we'll see about next week.  See you soon!

Great cards! I love the bright colors and that you made your own background. The second card is so happy with the beautiful sentiment and how you drew and punched the borders. It is cooling down here finally with rain. We will probably go from hot to cold! Be safe!

Both cards are fabulous, but I am loving how you made a background from the stamp. This could be done in so many different color pallets. Just gorgeous.

I am loving these cards and I'm so happy that you seem to be enjoying rolling them out! Simple coloring looks fabulous! It's amazing how much I like the bright pops of color! Running the whole card through the EF is a great idea. Love the texture and soft blue!

Both are fabulous Leslie! LOVE the bold colors on the first card and isn't it fun to make your own background with one stamp! I don't do that often enough but love how it comes out when I do! And your second card is precious ... love that framing ... great idea! ALWAYS find inspiration when I come to visit your blog!!! HUGS and HEALTH to you!!

These bright and pretty flowers are heart lifting, Leslie! You got two very different looks! That embossing folder is my favorite! Sometimes emboss going in both directions just for added fun.

So pretty, Leslie! I really love the coloring - so simple and effective!

Love the background you made from that stamp, such a lovely combo of colors, even your simple coloring looks terrific, I like how you put the sentiment on the black oval so it would stand out!
The second card is just gorgeous, love your pen work to frame it and use of your corner punch. The embossed background makes it look like Bazzill cardstock doesn't it!

Ida said...

Both these cards are just lovely as can be. Hard to pick a favorite. I love how you created the background on the first card and I love the soft colors you used on the second care.

Christine Alexander said...

Two beautiful cards Leslie, I love your bright simply copic coloured card so cheerful :)

Stacy Morgan said...

Both are so pretty and you show the versatile way to use the same stamp. Clever girlie!

Cat Craig said...

I just love these cards and the post as well. Always great to see a stamp used multiple ways. Love the coloring on both and the corner accents. Hugs.

Pauline said...

Wow, two more beautiful cards with this stamp set, so versatile! Love the colours and design of your first card, the black oval really makes your 'hello' pop as well as the added hearts. And your second card, so soft and pretty. I would of never thought that you used an embossing folder for your card base, I thought it was textured card stock, what an awesome folder to have in your collection! Fabulous sentiment on this card too, your cards always bring a smile to my face!
Hope your doing well, take care Leslie!
