Here are my samples for the Blog Hop, using the Tweet Blessings images...........
The first is made using the Split Negative technique, and of course, my favorite colors!! I t was SO hard NOT to make that bird RED, but as you can see, I got enough RED Surrounding him!!
The second card is a different image, and contains my favorite colors again, with the addition of the sky done with a cloud template, which I dearly love using!! Capped it off with a wonderful OLD button. I hope you like my samples for the Blog Hop! Please join us tomorrow for Day 2!

The Split Negative technique is what I learned in a class the very first time I made a card. I marvel now that I went on from there to become a cardmaking addict, since that technique was (and is)not at all easy.
I love the way you put the bird house on a post so it isn't dangling in mid air. And of course red, black and white ....always a winning combination.
Striking colors on the first and love the clouds on the second card.
Cool card, split negative techniques looks brill. Heather:)
These are FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!
Love your split negative on the first card, Anne. And that button on the second card is a nice touch.
both cards are GORGEOUS!!! love that split image on the bird stamp!
Wow, Anne this stamp looks great with this technique. Both cards are awesome!!
Just look how well you incorporated that RED in both your cards, Anne! Beautiful - both, beautiful!
Each card is so nice! I have yet to attempt the split negative technique.
Love the red Anne!! Especially on your split neg card.
Connie
Beautiful cards ...so creative. TFS!
Must be a great day for you, Anne--TWO cards using your favorite color :) I LOVE the split technique you used on the first, and your cloudy sky behind that sweet birdhouse in the second looks amazing. Did the thunder wake you during the night?????
Great cards, Anne!! The positive/negative design looks sensational in red, white, and black.
Gorgeous clouds and scroll work for the sweet birdhouse!! Beautiful, beautiful work!
Black,Red and White... can't go wrong with that combination! Great cards, Thanks for sharing

Wow Anne! You have your mojo going on with these beauties! Love the color combos (of course!) and the techniques you used are fabulous!! Awesome cards!!
Two sweet cards Anne! love the pos/neg design and the cute bird on top of the birdhouse! and of course - the red!

Great cards Ann, lovely little details.
Oh your cleverness, I love your cards today, especially the split negative one! Coolio!
Really great cards. That split neg card looks really hard to do. I too like how you put the birdhouse on a pole.
Anne, that first card is so striking and dramatic! The second is an excellent use of the birdhouse...like how you put it on a post to ground it!
Two gorgeous cards and I love them both!! The black and white split negative is such a cool technique. Really beautiful, Anne.
Miss Anne, these are fantastic cards. I am blown away with your split negative card. I have seen this technique done before, but yours surpasses all of those other cards! If you are looking for a home for that card...... You did a great job my friend!!
