Twofer Card Challenge #33 ~ STARS!

Hello and welcome!

We hope this finds you doing well! All of us are yearning for a time when this pandemic is over and we can once again give and receive hugs. Until then, we are uplifting the spirits of others when we send off our handmade cards! We hope our challenge will inspire you to play along, have some fun, and make two cards for two special someones! 
This month our challenge prompt is:
THE TWIST

Normally, you need to make two cards for two different occasions. Because so many of us are madly working on Christmas holiday cards, for this month only, we are forgoing that element of Twofer! 

For this challenge you may enter two Christmas holiday cards, but they must still be two different layout designs using the same stamp, die, or stencil for the STARS prompt on both designs. 

Of course, if you'd like to make cards for two different occasions, as the Design Team has done, that's fine! It's up to you! All the other rules apply. 

If you have any questions about specifics of the challenge, and in order to be eligible to win, please take a few minutes to review the Definitions/Examples tab above. We appreciate your enthusiasm and support and can't wait to see you stretch your stamps, stencils, dies, and design skills! 

THE PRIZE$

The Twofer Card Challenge will be dark in December. In order to end the year on a positive note of joy after this long and trying year, there will be prizes for this month only. The list of companies who have generously offered prizes is located at the end of this post. Please thank these companies by supporting them when you can!

Twofer Card Challenge #32 ~ Silhouettes

Hello and welcome!

I hope this finds you doing well! I hope our challenge will inspire you to play along, have some fun, and make two cards for two special someones!
This month our challenge prompt is:
Silhouette is described as a dark shape and outline of something or someone visible against a lighter background. In cardmaking, we also create silhouettes as a white shape and outline of something or someone visible against a darker background. A silhouette can also be a person's face in profile. Examples of all these are shown below.
  1. Feel free to interpret the prompt however it inspires you to make two distinctly different design layouts for two different occasions. (If both occasions are not clear on the card fronts, please state the specific occasions in your post.)
  2. Please remember that you must use the same stamp (as opposed to the same set of stamps) and you may use digis for any elements of your Twofer designs, except for the prompt element.
  3. You're welcome to make two conventional designs or a combination of one conventional and one unconventional design. 
We appreciate your enthusiasm and support and can't wait to see you stretch your stamps, stencils, dies, and design skills! Please see the above tabs for more detailed rules, examples, and frequently asked questions.

Guest Designers:

Please welcome our August conventional winner Carol (Just me: c) with her Twofer designs using the SILHOUETTES prompt to inspire you! Thank you, Carol!
And please welcome our August unconventional winner Shawna (The Grand Stampede) with her Twofer designs using the SILHOUETTES prompt to inspire you! Thank you, Shawna!
