Thanks, Friend, Enjoy x2

I've two cards for today, as I didn't get many up last week.  They're both the same style, with a finishing difference.

I'd meant to do a 3 circle card with a raised cut out of the 3 circles popped over them, yet somehow when I got to the end of this first card I completely forgot about that and finished it off with butterflies.  Hence the second card.  I used a truer green for the second one as I'm submitting it to Simon Says Stamp's A Bit 'O Green challenge.


 I'm not very good at spacing my stamps for cards like this, so I used my Silouette SD to create a template.  I did it in green acetate, so it would be easier to see when I stamp inside the circles.  I also made the circles a little bit larger than the stamps, so I wouldn't stamp the edges by accident.  It works pretty well. :)

I've decided heading forward that I won't be adding a supplies list anymore, as it's a lot of work and I'm always forgetting to do it while I'm crafting.  If you're wondering what I used on a card, ask in the comments and I'll post an answer for you.

Shoe Panel Card

I liked the design of yesterday's card, and so made another using a different stamp.  Turns out this is an easy way of making your own patterned paper.  I used two shades of purple ink and repeated the shoes upside down, to give it the look of professional paper.  As with the other card, I also scored it along the top and bottom.
Supplies:
Cardstock: Recollections
Stamps: Imaginisce - Sole Sisters Stiletto Snag Em Mini Stamp, Whiff of Joy - Magical Wishes
Ink: Memento dew drops

Tropical Flowers Card

I saw someone do this style of card elsewhere (unfortunately I couldn't find the site I got this from).  The idea is to do a stamped panel across a plain card with a sentiment at the bottom.  I added a few crease lines with my score board for added effect.  

I had some trouble with the stamp and ended up doing the panel several times (at which point I had trouble with the ink - the pink didn't want to wash off so I ended up with some orange bits).  Tomorrow's card, using the same style, worked out better.

Cardstock: Recollections
