2 Cards for 1 Sketch...

 Hi Folks,

Welcome back to my wee bit of blogland. Happy New Month!!! Cant quite believe we are into May!!! 

  Im here with 2 cards I have made for the Birthday Box as I was running low. I loved the sketch over on CAS Colours and Sketches and thought I would use it on both the cards.
 The cards look so different with the accompanying papers and colour schemes.

Thank You to everyone who has asked how going food shopping was on Wednesday. Well I can safely say I wont be back for more for another week!! It totally traumatises me!!! It was compounded by the fact that I had lost my bank card!!! So everything was though the checkout and when I opened my purse my bank card was missing. I had accidentally lost it in another shop the week before. I had put it in the payment machine and hadn't taken it back out. Thankfully someone had handed it in. I get even more flustered now at the shops that I did before all this and as the weeks go by in lockdown my anxiety monster is growing bigger and bigger!!  Hey Ho, I know it will pass and we are all doing our bit to help save lives and keep our NHS going!!!  (Thank Goodness for a wee drop of cash in my purse and apple pay!!!! Got the shopping paid for that way!!) 

Sending Love and Sparkles,

Hazel xx

Love both your cards. They look the same and yet so different.
Quite an adventure with your shopping. So lucky for you that your card has been found by an honest person.

these look so different love the WOW with that splash of feminine pink whilst the other has a more masculine feel, thank goodness you had some cash with you and that your card was handed in.

Hi Hazel,

hanks for telling me the origin of Haary's name. I've heard of Dr Who, of course.

Both cards are lovely! Isn't is amazing how you get such a different look, despite using the same stamps and the same design? i think, if pushed, I'd choose the pink one as my favourite but it's a toughie! Thanks for playing along with us at Retro Rubber Challenge, Hazel.

Aww Hazel, I bet your heart just sank when you found your card gone, horrible for you, but glad to hear you managed to pay for your shopping in the end.
Well done in getting out to the supermarket when you experience such anxiety issues. I've got my first food delivery from Morrisons this afternoon, so that will be interesting.
Now, I love both your cards, the design is fabulous and your papers and embellishments are lovely. Hope your weekend is going well, Kate x

Two beautiful cards Hazel, both with gorgeous colors! Good thing a honest person turned in your credit card.
Take care & stay healthy, Tammy

Love both cards. They're very different to each other - it's hard to believe you followed the same sketch for them both.
Well done on making it to the supermarket. I haven't been since just before the lockdown about 6 weeks. Luckily I can get online home deliveries because I bought an annual delivery pass earlier in the year. My neighbours tell me the shops aren't too bad if you go later in the day. I have to walk just over a mile to get to my nearest shop and if I then had to stand and wait ages to get in I don't know if I'd manage walking around the shop and then the walk home (all up hill). Stay safe- hugs.

Two fabulous cards using the sketch. A new challenge blog to me so thanks for the thumbs up . Goodness I thinkI would have died with a heart attack on the spot if that had happened to me. I go into panic mode at the slightest mishap. Hugs Mrs A.

Patricia Hays said...

I love that just by changing the color schemes and papers used, you've created two very different, terrific looking cards using the same stamp and same sketch! Well done! Thanks for sharing your artwork with us at CC&S!

These are both so very pretty, in the different styles but the same, just shows how you can stretch your mind...

Hubby does my shopping (I am mental and have not left the house for 18 years) and I thank god that hes so chilled out, I am so anxious with all this, and scared for my kiddies, but putting on a brave face...

Hugs Pops x
