June Twofers-Trees

The June Twofers Challenge #6 sponsored by Darnell Knauss uses a Trees theme. I have had this Poppystamps Boddington Tree Border die for several months so with this die I am using it to make not only a Christmas card but also a Father's Day card. The object is to try and use the same die or stamp in a different way to make two different types of cards.

For the Christmas card I used the Kiss Cute Glitter  technique shown in this video by Demo Donna from Sparkle N Sprinkle. By sharing this video it is a much easier way to explain how I made it. All the glitter is from Sparkle N Sprinkle. The sentiment is from a Stampin' Up! stamp set called Christmas Pines.

My Father's Day card uses Gina K. Designs stamps. The background for the sentiment is done using the Diagonal Striped Background stamp and Lucky Clover ink and the sentiment is from the By The Sea stamp set using Amalgon Jet Black ink. I also used some Gina K. Designs black card stock too to frame the striped background.. This time I simply die cut the Boddington Tree Border with Lucky Clover card stock from Gina K. Designs and added it to a white card base.

Well, I must admit this was fun to do and of course, my floor and I both sparkle too! I am sure we will have glitter in everything for a few days. I got a lot of glitter when I was designing for Sparkle N Sprinkle so it is something I should try and use a lot more often.

I wish you a great Sunday and hope the rest of the week is a great one too! Thanks for stopping by.

God bless, Verna
