I've used another of my stenciled Split 4 backgrounds to make a card
for our sweet Emmy.
I've stamped these cute little guys with Memento Ink and colored with Copics.
and for the boys...
Here are two more from the Split 4. (The 4th didn't make it to a card.)
The above card on the right was shared last week. I added a sentiment before
sending it off. Then I needed to do one for Luke too.

Emmy's card is adorable with those cute critters and the boys cards are sure fun ones. The split four technique is a quick way for get four backgrounds and your colors on the leaves are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteThe card for Emmy is totally adorable...makes me smile big. And the 2 for the boys are super fun. The split 4 technique is serving you well.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of the Split 4 backgrounds you created. Emmy’s card is super sweet. The toucan cards for the boys are so fun. They will love them.
ReplyDeleteI love the sweet PB hedgie and mouse on that 'split 4' background, beautifully coloured Bonnie and perfect for Emmy, then your toucans, so bright and beautiful on their stencilled leaf backgrounds, and great sentiments for the boys. Three wonderful cards much appreciated I'm sure! x
ReplyDeleteOooh, Bon, I love this split-4 version and will be checking my leaf stencils today! The bold colors of the greens against the white are mwah and, of course, the hedgie/mouse scene and the toucans are just adorable!! (So curious why that fourth one didn't make it to a card, dang it.) Keep well! Hugs, Dolly
ReplyDeleteThat split technique is so cool! Your card look wonderful, Bonnie.
ReplyDeleteLove the colours and the parrots you added to the last two.
Really love your stenciled split four, Bonnie! Those leaves make the perfect background for your birds and critters!! Especially love the hedgie on a swing coming out from the fronds!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, Bonnie...I am going to give this a try (again) and maybe use an extra large stencil and see if I can make something as wonderful as you did! I love your add ons for specific grands...what a great idea!Heart Hugs and love!

These are too cute Bonnie, and I just love that hedgie on a swing, What a clever use of the split four background! These are so colorful and cheerful and your coloring is just amazing!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I haven't had enough time to add stenciling to the split 4 technique, but I did try out die-cuts! More to come... in the meantime I'm loving seeing these toucans again... or would that be four-cans?
ReplyDeleteGo forth and continue being fabulous, my friend!
