My first card is a vintage style card in Rich Razzleberry, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla with just a few touches of Gold. I used Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive markers to color the flower image, which is spritzed with water before I stamped it onto the Very Vanilla cardstock. Then I added some stamped off images of the chevron pieces and the chevron patterned oval. I added some sponging around the flower and along the edges. For the bit of gold, I inked the En Francais background stamp in Gold Encore ink and stamped it over the entire piece. Finally, I covered the flower and stem in a thin layer of Dazzling Details to make it pop and give it some sparkle.
I embossed and die cut the Rich Razzleberry strip - I just love the Big Shot! The flower embellishment is a piece of Vellum that I sponged heavily and then punched with the Pansy Punch. I added some score lines for the flower center and to give it some dimension. My favorite part of this card though is the Gold Baker's Twine!

My second card is stamped in a much cleaner and crisper style. I stamped the Thanks sentiment in Basic Black Craft ink at the center point of the Whisper White cardstock strip. This is Heat Embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. Then I stamped the chevron image on either side of the sentiment in Bermuda Bay ink. A mat of Coastal Cabana sets this off the Basic Black background. I added a wrap of Coastal Cabana Ruffled Trim and a layer of Silver 1/8" Ribbon over this, across the bottom. Finally, I added a few Mini Silver Brads across the top. This is such a quick and easy card!

These are both lovely! I like both styles, depending on the occasion.
Your cards are always so elegant, Mary. I love them both. The first has so many elements that combine to make it a real piece of art! And I love the colors on the second card too!
Wow! These are definitely two very different but two stunning projects! Again, the versatility of Oh, Hello is definitely seen with these.
Great cards! I love the vellum flower on the first one, and the clean lines on the second!
The colors in your first card are so rich and perfect for a vintage feel. Like how you carried the design to the inside on both your cards.
What a lovely way to showcase the versatility of this set - from rich and dreamy to bold and dramatic! Both are wonderful!!
These are absolutely, stunningly GORGEOUS, Mary!! Color combos are striking! Very different, but BOTH are memorable!! Nicely done, girl! :)
Oh Mary, your first card is just so elegant. But I love the clean look too! So versatile.
What an amazing collection of projects. I'm learning how versatile each stamp set can be. Your projects range from very traditional to kind of edgy. All beautiful!
Awesome cards and great way to show this set with completely two different cards. I love the first one so pretty and soft and you just sold me on the pansy punch. ROFL Your second card is just so striking and pretty!
Beautiful cards! I love how you used the gold on the first one! And I love the ribbon on the second!
Love both of these, Mary. And I love how different they are to really show off this stamp set. Great job!
Both cards are truly beautiful Mary. Clean and simple and distressed vintage. Love all the elements on the vintage card and the vellum flower is beautiful.
Beautiful and elegant!!!
It's a good thing I don't have to pick a favorite card, these are both so wonderful! I love the layers of stamping and the vellum flower on the first card. And the simple elegance of the second- especially the silver and ruffled ribbon combo!
You showed 2 different styles in a big way! Both cards are beautiful.
Fabulous cards. Love the intricate one the best. The velum flower is a beautiful touch! Things like this is what makes what we do ART. Thanks for sharing, Jess
There are both stunning, Mary. I love the colors you chose for them. Amazing!
