Make It Monday ~ Two Toned Stamped Sentiments

This week was Danielle's turn to host PTI's Make It Monday and her genius, creative and super fun two toned stamped sentiments is the challenge. You can find all the details HERE. What a fun technique!! I couldn't decide if I wanted to do black and white or use a color so I did both.

I used the biggest word I could find from Big Hugs and used the fruit from Still Life Summer and some flowers from Nostalgic Notions.


For this one I used leaves from Embellished Elegance and Rosie Posie, since I think she's been feeling neglected lately. ;0)
I didn't have the striped cover plate so I cut panels using MFT's Blueprints #13 and cut them into 1/2" strips. Thanks Danielle, for making it doable for those of us who don't own the striped cover plates!!

I'm adding this card to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge

Awesome! The fruit it so cute on the first card and that shade of blue goes perfectly with the flower on the second card :) Very pretty!

Love both your cards Birgit! The bold and bright fruit and flowers really pop against the black and white card and I love how that HUGS looks in black and white too! And your blue and white card is just so pretty and soft and Rosie Posie fits perfectly! Lovely, lovely cards Birgit!! :0)

Well I vote the black and white. Gorgeous with the fruit and blue flowers! The blue is so pretty, but those bright colors on the b/w, simply striking!

Kathy Mc said...

Love Rosie Posie but have to agree that I'm favoring your black and white card with striking colorful images. Great job, Birgit.

Natalie said...

I love both of these. I went with black due to time, but I look forward to trying it with color, and now you have inspired me even more!

Karen said...

Gorgeous! I went through a lot of black card stock playing with this technique, but never ended up with anything I like enough to keep. You inspire me to try again!
