Hooray!

Celebrate a birthday of any age!  This card is so happy looking and colorful.

The white frame was embossed with a Happy Birthday folder.  I used the Papertrey Ink balloon die set and designer paper for the balloon.  Not sure this qualifies for the negative die challenge, but I had fun making this card. 

 

I made the second card in yellow and green and have two people in mind for these birthday cards.

Have a great week.  Stay warm.  I'm starting to dream about our trip to Florida next month.  Can't wait!

Cozy Reading Chair

Last week I purchased this book paper and thought it would be great for a background.   Then the email from Tuesday Morning Sketches arrived with the sketch for this week and I remembered a stamp set I hadn't used for a while that would go perfectly with the background paper.

With the Arctic cold surrounding us, I find this oversized chair, kitty and a book so comforting!

Guy Card

Guy cards are not difficult to create, yet they are not easy either.  Flowery, sentimental and mushy female cards are so easy and so much fun to make.  Finding the right balance of masculine colors, graphics and sentiments is a challenge.

So, with that said, I made this card.  The pine tree is perfect for a winter, masculine card.  No frills -- just the basics -- Happy Birthday!

 

I'll be posting this card to a new challenge for me:  The Male Room.  My plan (sort of like a new year resolution) is to make more guy cards.
