The challenge for the next two weeks at https://cardz4galz.blogspot.com/ is to use green and cream on your creations. I have used a technique found on Natasha Foote’s Youtube channel that gave me two for one with only the orientation of the stripes being different. It is a great way to use up scraps and is an easy card to make. After choosing the greans I wanted to use I proceeded to cut them into strips and following the tutorial added them to a thin piece of CS. I die cut the heart one by one after I had marked the placement with a tiny pencil mark. Then I cut the heats in half. Each piece was backed with foam tape before being added to the card front. In both cases I turned the cards into a get well message using stamps from a Joy Clair set. I added green embellishments to one and gold to the other along with a tiny gold bow. I like them both, which do you prefer?
I hope to see your creations in our gallery and look forward to viewing them. Thanks for stopping by, it is appreciated.

I really like them both, but I think the bow is a very nice addition. Great job on these!

Thanks a lot. I agree with you and I often take an idea from her. Her latest is to create the look of mosaic tile and I think I’m going to try it.

This card design is awesome. Very creative. Gosh I like both of them but I think I like the placement of the gem stones better on the second one.
