DARNELL'S TWOFER CHALLENGE # NO 2


Hi and a big warm welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Also a big warm welcome to anyone that just happens upon my blog, don't be shy your comment is always appreciated.

On the 10th of this month Darnell started her 2nd Twofer Challenge.
this runs to the 24th of Feb, and results are posted on the 30th of the month.


So here is my entry.





The sizes of these are 6"x6" and 5"x7".
Now the one on the right is quite CAS for me, and as anyone who knows me I struggle with CAS as I love embellishments.
They are both stamped with a freebie heart stamp from the Creative Stamping Magazine this month.
I used Memento Lady Bug ink and my Misti to stamp with. 

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time I really appreciate your visit, and comments.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter these into the following challenges.

Great cards, really striking with the bright red. I like the fun 'hello handsome' sentiment, it's unusual and appeals to my sense of fun x

Sarah said...

A terrific twofer Jenny, what a lovely stamp!! I did wonder if your blog had been sabotaged when I saw these CAS beauties...coincidentally I have a CAS offering on my blog today!! xx

Christine Harrop said...

Fabulous cards Jenny, great use of your heart stamp to create these two very different but equally striking cards. Glad you reminded about this challenge, it's a brilliant idea.

Hi Jenny, Two gorgeous cards, I'm loving your stamping. I'm with you, I never ever do CAS cards but I do like to look at other's CAS cards, with me it's 'more is more' hahaha. I have been using my Misti today too, I vowed to start doing more stamping and colouring this year.
Lots of love from Patricia xx

You've done splendid with the heart 2fer! Love how you've used the 4 hearts to frame this red circle. Love the addition of the dimensional red & white foliage and then the tiny red star flowers in each heart.#2 is just as great a use of this heart outline with the MWAH smack in the middle of it. Liked the way you've done the torn red border and the flourish corners. Well done! TFS & Hugs

Susanne Vargas said...

It looks like you got that free stamp at the right time and put it immediately to good use! The square card is so pretty with the die cut circle and leaves and I adore the right card with the lips in the heart and the torn edge!
Thank you for joining in the Twofer!

Loll said...

Two beautiful heart cards Jenny!!! Your square card with the flowers and leaves is so pretty and elegant. It doesn't look like you struggled with your CAS design --- it's perfect. LOVE the torn edge! Thanks for joining us at Twofer Card Challenge.

Brilliant cards, Jenny, so different from your usual style. Great cards for Darnell's Twofer challenge. xx

Anita in France said...

Bold and wonderfully eyecatching, Jenny ... the first makes great use of the heart in the kaleidoscope style pattern .. and the die cut centrepiece is fabulous with it! Your second, crisp, CAS number is brilliant ... and so fun ... sure to raise a smile! Thanks so much for your visit and kind words ... and for playing along with us at Twofer! Anita :)

Brenda in IN said...

Hi Jenny, your cards are so great for the twofer. The congratulations card is so pretty with the hearts and leaves. That "Hello Handsome" is so cute. I love the lips inside the heart and that greeting. Any guy would be thrilled with it!

Brenda said...

Wow Jenny, I am so loving both of your twofer cards! What a way to use that heart!! I love both card designs and I love the "Hello Handsome". Perfect for that valentine. The design you made with the leaves on your other card is so fabulous in the middle like that. Love them both so much!!! Hugs, Brenda

Verna Angerhofer said...

Both are so gorgeous and lovely using that heart design. Great colors too.

Kara Lynne said...

Fabulous twofer cards, Jenny! Your first card just exudes the feeling of a celebration and the 'heartfelt' sentiment is perfect! CAS is a struggle for me too, but you pulled it off beautifully on your second card! Thanks for joining in on the fun with us at the Twofer Card Challenge!

Darnell said...

Yum, Jenny, that bright red and white are perfect for these two heart designs! Your exploding heart is lovely for a celebration and I love the floral, leaf, and dots elements! And, wow, what a sexy card of love your second design is! Va-va-voom!! Thank you so much for the awesome shoutout and for playing along in Twofer Card Challenge #2!! Mwah! Hugs, Darnell
