Two with a Triangle


Here are two cards using the same triangle stamp by Craftwork Cards, so I'll be entering them into the Twofer challenge.

My first card uses the triangle as both a Christmas tree and an A - it was actually part of a Christmas set but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a tree or banner or both. I cut the letters on the Silhouette and covered them with glitter , then stamped the 'merry'.

Here I used the triangle as mountains in the distance. I stamped and coloured the canoe and masked it off . I used second generation stamping to stamp the mountains and trees and coloured the water with ink and a stencil brush.

How clever to use the tree for the A in Xmas and mountains behind the canoers! Love both cards, Marina!

Susanne Vargas said...

Two fun and creative uses for your triangle! First it adds lots of interest on your CAS Christmas card and it also makes great (and steep) mountains for your adorable bear family in the canoe!
Thank you so much for joining us at the Twofer!

two great cards, the tree shape is perfect for the A on your Christmas card and the treeline on your fun birthday Card. thanks for joining us at CAS Christmas.

You managed to use the triangle in two, or actually three, different ways, as a letter, a tree and mountains, how clever! The Christmas card is trendy and beautiful with the glitter touches and the scene of nature is so well executed. Great job!

How clever of you to use your triangle as a Christmas tree for the letter A (genius idea!) and as mountains for your cute outdoor canoe scene! I just love that sweet bear family in their canoe! I don't think I would have thought of it, but your triangle stamp makes excellent snow-covered mountains! Both designs are fantastic, Marina! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #8! Hugs, Darnell

Two awesome cards using your triangle tree stamp Marina!! Beautiful CAS Christmas card with your sparkly large letters and tree for the "A". Very creative and fun! And adorable canoe card. Looks like the group is having fun on the water! And the trees make great mountains in the background. Thanks for playing along with us at Twofer Card Challenge and CAS Christmas!

Great twofers, Marina! How clever you are to use the triangle Christmas tree as a letter A! Just simple green and white - I love the CAS-ness.
You created such an adorable nature scene for the second card.
Thank you so much for sharing the cool tree card at CAS Christmas! Hideko xx

Marina, this is a fabulous and fun masculine themed card! I love the whole nature/canoeing scene you have created here. I know many of the men in my family would appreciate a card like this. Thank you for joining our challenge this week at Watercooler Wednesday! Crystal

Awwwww - those bears in that Kanu are super adorable! Love the different ways you used that geometric tree!

Brilliant cards! I love the Indian bears with that fabulous BG of hazy trees and the Christmas card is CAS perfection!

Still catching up on blog posts I missed last week when I was on vacation. These are so fun! Very different looking for the triangle theme. Well done!

Brenda said...

What a creative use of your stamps! I love the little scene you have set for those cute bears. Thanks so much for sharing your darling card with us at Little Red Wagon this week!

Awww how cute is your canoe full of critters. They’re definitely wild and free spirits! Thanks for playing at The Male Room.

That's a wonderful Christmas card, and the "A"/tree is darn clever! Love that you've kept it to beautifully CAS green and white too. And those mountains....I hadn't thought of that with triangles, but you've really worked the 'geometric' prompt perfectly. Fun cards!! Thanks for joining us at the Twofer Challenge. Bev

A very intelligent use of the Triangle as a tree and an alphabet at the same time....I love the simplicity of the designs..Thanks for joining us at The Twisted Challenges August Theme

Lise Mariann said...

Wow! Your cards are both really fun. Love the clever way you have used that triangle stamp. To use it as mountains was so cool. Love the scene on the bottom card. Almost so I can hear the sound of the drums. Thank you for going wild with us this week.
