Good morning! It’s my turn to show a Project of the Week for Repeat Impressions. I call this Two for One — when I can make 2 cards at one time, I feel like I make the most of my card making time.

I die cut a circle into a piece of kraft cardstock. The kraft colored cut out will be placed on a piece of white cardstock and the kraft negative will be used as a card — two for one. Here is what it looks like:

Then I stamped a couple of images called #1222-G Love Stencil and #2628-H Comfy Chair. The chair was quickly colored with copics. One chair and two hearts were cut out leaving a small white edge.

The white circle was shaded with an ink.
Kraft card was stamped with the sentiment called #3905-I Where we love.
The white card was stamped with the sentiments called #9717-C Happy Hello and #9711-E I Love You Bunches (the “bunches” word was masked)
Twine was tied at top and pen was used to make fake stitches around the circles.

One of the reasons I like to use die cuts is that you can use both the negative and positive. These two cards were quick, quick, quick to make.

Thanks for looking at my project. I hope that the next time you use a die cut, you will take the opportunity to use both the positive and negative.

Have a HAPPY stamping day.
Joy
