The next challenge in the group was to either do the same layout but opposite themes or same stamp opposite theme. I went with using the same stamp but opposite themes, Sympathy and Birthday. I never have sympathy cards on hand and it would be nice to have one so I can get it out right away.
This die cuts out the middle section so I popped up the stamp with foam and left the frame glued to my card base. The sentiments are also with this stamp set.

Next was my birthday card. I tried to match the colors in my paper with the rose but it doesn't show well in the picture. I fussy cut this one.

I love seeing different designs made with the same stamp.
These are so pretty.
Thank you so much for the cards that you have send to Steve and I. They are so special and touch our hearts.
Wishing you a wonderful and healthy 2020.
God bless you.

I love when card makers do several cards using the same stamp - it's always so fun to see how they turn out. Yours are absolutely beautiful! I especially like the blues/greens of the sympathy card and that lacy border!
Love seeing two cards made with the same image. Both cards are beautiful, but Im really drawn to the sympathy card. Its the most beautiful sympathy csrds Ive seen!
Good job, Connie. The cards are similar but so different! I especially love the first one with the lacy background and soft blue rose.
These are both beautiful! Love the florals and colors and the different Designer Papers too!
you take on these challenges so well connie!! both cards are beautiful!! perhaps good to make on a sympathy card, sadly, you have needed quite a few lately!!!
Gosh, Connie, that's a really pretty stamp set with the image and sentiments! I don't think I've ever even looked at Hot Off the Press stamps, but I love this. You did a great job with your challenge. It reminds me of the Twofer challenge. Your layouts are completely different and both cards are awesome.
Your cards are beautiful! You did a wonderful job on both.
How beautiful!
Lovely cards Connie! I love the one with the frame especially, so pretty.
Both cards are gorge Connie you’ve an eye for that special detail to finish the cards off and you’re right about not having enough sympathy cards.
