Christmas & Birthdays In June

 


2 challenges inspired today's card...

Jingle Belles // #JB2411 ...A year round Christmas challenge!!  For this current challenge we have been given a tic-tac-toe board as our inspiration.  My winning three in a row on this game board: embossing (holly flourish in upper right hand corner), red (red flower, frame, and ribbon), and die (coffee cup die).

Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge // #CCCC30 ...A monthly caffeinated Christmas themed challenge!!  Christmas + Coffee + Masculine!!  I picked masculine colors and papers...deep rich red and rustic browns.




Card #2 was inspired by 3 challenges...

Inspired By Challenges // #IB291I...A photo inspired challenge with an optional sketch.   For today's card, I used both the photo and the sketch.  My inspiration from the photo...cupcakes me birthdays, right?? and birthdays mean balloons...YES!!  I also picked on the polka dots (embossed them onto the balloons) and the soft pastel colors!!

Addicted to CAS // #259 ...A "code word" challenge that is clean and simple!!  The code word for this current challenge is BALLOONS!!  So...a clean and simple card with a bouquet of balloons is what you will get today for this 2nd card!!

Can You Handle the Pressure // 25MAY24 ...An embossing challenge!! I used two embossing folders to give texture to my balloons.

  2. Oh yes rustic colors on a Christmas card is a great choice for a masculine theme. I recognize the papers you used as I still have some of the same in my paper stash!!
