What a fun idea! The Twofer challenge blog is new to me. The idea is to use the same stamp for different occasions to get two separate looks. I was so inspired by Darnell's DT card with the wonderful grey sketched-look card, and also an older video of Jennifer McGuire's for the background, where she sprays the ink with a Perfect Pearls and water mix.
Thanks for stopping by!
May you be blessed today, and may you be a blessing...

Nancy, it's lovely to meet you and have these delightful designs in the gallery! I'm happy to be your latest follower and I'd love to have you visit me and follow me, too, if you like, as well as becoming a follower at Twofer. I've had a bit of a poke around and enjoyed seeing your fantastic cards! Your pear Twofers are beautifully made. I love the black and white single pear taking center stage on your first card and the way you did repeated stamping of your sentiment and it looks equally fabulous as an all-over design with that sensational background on your thank you card!! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #24! I hope we see you again next month! Hugs, Darnell
I'm so happy that you've found The Twofer Card Challenge, Nancy! You've made two 'pear-fect' cards which fit the challenge wonderfully. That sketchy pear looks amazing, and has such a different look from your first second card; I love that! The black and white, and shades of gray looks amazing in the center of all those perfect sentiments. My eye was drawn right in! And your green and white embossed panel looks amazing. The bit of burlap and those sentiments work to finish off your thank you card perfectly. Thank you so much for joining us at The Twofer Challenge, and I hope to see you again in the gallery! Bev
I'm glad you found Twofer challenge and have created two perfect pears cards. I like your grey shaded pear on the first card and outstanding background on the second one.
Hugs, Sonja
