I am sharing a one layer card with bright vibrant colors today. In preparation to enter the challenge of One-Layer Simplicity #2: "Can you repeat that?" I first wanted to use a big floral stamp and repeat stamping it, but it turned out to be a bit boring so I turned to see what I could do with my background stamps.
I first made the masculine version but I like this feminine version a lot better:
The masculine version does not make me as happy as the feminine version, probably because of my bad choice of colors:
What's interesting is that I thought it could only become a masculine card (that's why I started with this second one), then because it didn't make my heart sing I changed up the colors and also my mind as to whether it can be a girly birthday card. I guess I can't really envision the card before making it, thus always creating trash in my craft area. LOL.
The feminine version is linking up to:

Thanks for stopping by!
I LOVE the happy wiggly feel of this background stamp - it immediately caught my eye in the gallery! Definitely a different feel between the two colour combinations - I'm glad you kept trying (and also glad I'm not the only one keeping the recycling guys in business!) Thanks for joining us at OLS!
ReplyDeleteWell, I think they are both great! I actually like the blues better. I do like the pattern you've used. Thanks so much for playing along with ASM this week!
ReplyDeleteI like the masculine version as well. I like the colour of the sentiment in that version. Like how the stamp is all different lengths, thanks for joining us at ATSM
ReplyDeleteI think they are both great looking cards! Thanks for joining us at TTCRD, hope to see you again in our next challenge! - XX Cara
ReplyDeleteWhat clever cards. They remind of embroidery stitches. Both work beautifully.
ReplyDeleteOooooooh! I love this--particularly in the pink and orange!
ReplyDeleteThese are both awesome, although I do like the feminine one better. It jumped right out at me from the link up, and I had to come by to take a closer look.
