Jen Rzasa demonstrated a fabulous technique in Day 3 of His & Hers Online Card Class, which I wanted to try. Mine didn't work out like Jen's but they finished up not too bad. This is my "His" card.
For my "Hers" card, I used the same colour scheme but with a more feminine stamp:
I've also based them loosely on this week's CAS(E) This Sketch:
ETA: I've had a couple of enquiries about the stamps used. The scroll stamp on the male card is a Judikins Bolio, and the flower stamp on the female card is from Magenta. With sympathy is from Clearly Besotted.

Here are a couple of photos of the mini-canvas/bookmark/card workshop I ran last week for the stamping club that I'm in, which went down pretty well with everyone:
Close-up of the canvases - I did a pink set as well.
What a great selection of projects! Everything is stunning, but I especially like those canvases - lovely, Jo x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards!
ReplyDeleteThese are both so subtle and gentle, Shirley, perfect for sympathy cards. The butterfly projects are completely awesome ... not surprised they went down well ... they're stunning! Anita :)
