Tall Tale - his and hers

In connection with the Altenew bloghop I saw my Inkspirational-teamie, Lindsey, had made a card using the Tall Tale stamp set. I liked it so much so I had to get the set myself. You can see her post here.

I've been trying to make 2 cards at a time lately, I'm a slow cardmaker, and I find it doesn't take double the time making 2 cards at the same time. Yay, efficient and fun!

For both cards I used a DP as wallpaper and an embossing folder to make the floor/desk. 


Card 1) For her - Colored version based on a sketch

This card is for Sunday Stamps - #264 Sketch


Card 2) For him - Black and white version with woodgrain

This card is for Shopping Our Stash - #452 Wood You Believe?

  3. These are fabulous cards Pia, it does make sense to make two at the same time while everything is out. Both cards are great designs! Like the sentiments too!

  4. I love both of these, Pia! A good book-related stamp set is always good to add to the collection. ;) Your "for her" card is beautifully coloured, and your "for him" card looks perfect in black and white. Thanks for the shout-out, as well!
