I have been playing with the split image technique today having seen a great tutorial from Gail Ellis of Blue Rose Paper Treasures . I have used to Forever Blossoms stamp set to create my cards. If you have hopped over from the lovely Gez Carpenter, welcome. You are also very welcome if you are starting the hop with me.

To recreate the split image cards, you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left and lower right corners
Magenta Madness – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded upper left and lower right corners
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left and lower right corners x 2
Basic Black – 5⅜” by 3⅝”

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Magenta Madness – 5 ½” by 3 ¾”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2

I took one Whisper White panel and the Basic Black panel – it is important that they are exactly the same size. I placed the White panel in my Stamparatus and stamped the image from the Forever Blossoms stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I removed the white panel and replaced it with the Basic Black panel. I inked the same image using Versamark ink and closed the panel to stamp the image. The image was then covered with White Embossing Powder and heat set using my Heat Tool.

The 2 stamped panels were then placed, one on top of the other in my Trimmer and cut at 1¼”.

Taking 2 of the remaining Whisper White panels and glued the larger Basic Black piece and the smaller Whisper White pieces onto the spare Whisper White panels. Repeat with the other 2 pieces making sure to line up the images.

The whole piece was added to the Magenta Madness layer using the same Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a piece of White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around each panel securing it on the back with Sellotape. A bow from the same ribbon was added with a Mini Glue Dot.

I Stamped and embossed the sentiment from the Art Gallery stamp set on the Basic Black panel and then stamped the same sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black onto the Whisper White panel. I added a trio of In Color Enamel Dots to complete the cards.

The second panel was added to the Basic Black card base.
