Twofer Card Challenge 30

Greetings:

Can you believe that it is time for a new Twofer Card Challenge?

This month Darnell's prompt is Sun/Moon.


I have no moon stamps and 1 sun die and 1 sun stamp set.  I chose the sun stamp set, 
the set is an old monthly kit stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.

For the challenge, the rules are as follows:


After choosing the stamp set, I set about designing my two cards. I like to use sketches to make sure
I have two different designs before I put in the effort to make the cards.  I have in the past ended up
with two cards that were far to similar.


The two cards together.

and separately.


Thanks so much for visiting, and I hope to see your sun/moon creations in 
the Twofer Card Challenge Gallery!

Fabulous Twofer with that sun image, Cat!! Those yellows really make me smile and I especially love the sun with the sunglasses and big grin!! Thanks for having me as a GD on the Twofer Challenge - I'm having a great time!!

I did smile when I saw we'd both used the same sun, Cat ... complete with sunglasses on one ... great minds! You made this guy really shine ... whether he's mulipli-glowing and smiling from in his scalloped panel ... or cool and CAS in his shades with that fabulous scripty sentiment! Happy and so much fun ... both of them! Hugs, Anita :)

I love the way you used that sun in two ways where the mouth just looks like reflection markings on the birthday card, and then with the sunglasses and full smile for your "happy" card - so clever! Two wonderful designs, Cat!

Happy Dance said...

Such a pair of fun, sunny cards, Cat! Love the CAS look of your "happy" card, and those sunglasses on Mr. Sunshine adds just the right amount of whimsey to your design. Perfect golden yellows, too -- on both cards! I love yellow; it always makes me smile! And your sun-covered scalloped panel on your birthday card is delightful! Who couldn't help but smile when finding this in their mailbox?! These are great! Love 'em both! Stay safe, and sending virtual hugs. Bev

I would never have known you struggled with this challenge Cat as both your cards are FABULOUS!! LOVE the all over design you created on the first card...looks just like dsp! And your CAS 2nd card with the sun wearing the sunglasses is just too sweet! AWESOME twofer my friend! Hugs. :0)

Mac Mable said...

Yes I only had one stencil in my stash and no stamps or dies! What happy cards Cat and they sure made me smile. Thank you for having me as your guest designer this month x.

I haven't looked at the challenge blog yet, but I'm stunned with how you managed to make two fabulous cards with this one little sun stamp. I love both! I'll have to see what I have. Can't believe it's time for another Twofer already!

Lisa Elton said...

These are fun! I like the one where the sun has on sunglasses. Looks like he's throwing his head back and laughing!

Darnell said...

If you only have one stamp for this prompt, Cat, it's sure a fun and happy one! I like how you made your own DSP for the birthday card. Love how the smile looks with the mono color! And you'd have to be deceased not to feel happy looking at that smiling and very cool dude of a sun on your second design!! Take care! I hope it's cooled off there. Hugs, Darnell

TK said...

Two fun cards, and I'm loving the sunflower-esque colors on both!

I Card Everyone said...

Hey, I have that guy... somewhere! You've created the sweetest dsp and those Ray-Bans? the coolest!

Great job with the challenge. I love both cards, but the sun with the glasses is totally cool. Wonderful cards for summer (which is quickly slipping away!!)

Jean said...

Wonderful take on the challenge - very fun summery cards.

Barb Ghig said...
