Messy Birthday
Howdy Everyone, Today's card is for the male in your life. Sometime making a card for a boy/man can be difficult as you can't use the safe 'go to' products like butterflies, sequins and flowers. It challenges you to think differently. Here the card has several layers demonstrating different textures. The card is made from several different products from different companies. Have a great weekend everyone! :)

Happy Square's
Hello, Today's card is a different card that has a few layers. I cut several squares and rectangles from different colors, and scattered them around.
This card is not only for the man in your life, but could be for the special person who likes shapes and is a bit abstract.
Thanks for stopping by.

Mountain Cheers
Hi Everyone, Tonight's card is striking, with bold, bright colours. The base is purple and the lower half is blue. Then I used printed paper, but just cut out part of it. This is a great way to use paper that maybe too bright and bold to use a lot of it. To me it looks like mountains.
I edged the bottom of the 'mountains' with a silver stripe and die cut "cheers" and laid it over the silver stripe.
This card would be perfect for the man in your life, as it is bright and bold as they are!!
Have a great day !!

Stained Glass Flower
Hi Everyone, This card is very pretty, I don't think my photo does it justice. I made it by die cutting the flower, twice in black, and then die cut in twice more, once with dark pink and then light pink. Then I die cut the leaves following the same method, twice with black, then with the two shades of green.
I then put the flower and the leaves together, interchanging each color.
This way, I use all the colors and end up with two cards!!
All the products used here are from Stampin Up.
Have a lovely day !!

Red Butterfly
Hi Everyone,
Today's card is a simple but elegant card that can be used for many different occasions. I actually gave this card as a birthday card, but it could easily be suitable for a wedding or congratulations card.
The base of the card is black, so on the inside I placed white cardstock so that it was easy for me to write my personal message.
I think this card would also be lovely with other colors, such as pale blue, purple or even cream.
I hope you like it.
