Split Coloring (2-For-1 Cards)
Welcome! Today I show how you can two-cards-for-one with a split coloring technique. This one works well with almost any stamps that calls for coloring.

I need to start out by saying that Dawn Woleslagle – the owner of WPlus9 – is one of the most talented people I know… and one of the kindest. Every time I use her products I feel honored to be doing so. I adore her. (I share this because I think it is good to know that good people are being these good products!)
The large floral image in the new WPlus9 Kind Soul Stamp Set is gorgeous and screams for beautiful coloring! I am not the best at coloring, but I took a stab at it with my Copics on Strathmore Bristol Smooth Paper. I also clear heat embossed the same image on Gina K. Peach Bellini Cardstock (SO pretty) and then cut both of the pieces in the same place. Now I have pieces for two split-colored cards…
I also added that oh-so-perfect sentiment – also from the same WPlus9 Kind Soul Stamp set – on a black strip between the stamped pieces. The “hello” is also from WPlus9 and I cut it from gold cardstock.
Ahhhhhh… that stamp is incredible!!!
I am a big fan of techniques that result in more than one card. I have done a similar technique several times in the past… be sure to check out THIS video.
Oh and I promise those peach flowers match the cardstock in real life. The photo isn’t the best. Sorry!
At the end of the video I shared a quick look at the other new WPlus9 products. You can find them at Simon Says Stamp or WPlus9. Hope this was helpful!
