Happy Saturday. I'm here with two cards today for two different challenges. First up is a birthday card for this week's ColourQ #205. This card shows me how well all my stampy toys play together. Dies from Lil Inkers and PTI, Stamps from CAS-ual Fridays and PTI, paper from SU and PTI, and inks from SU, PTI, and Memento.
My next card is for this week's Muse #33, where our inspiration card is by one of my favorite gals to CASE--Laurie Willison. Here is the inspiration card:
I fell in love with this layout, and thought it would be a good way to use some of the super fun paper I had leftover from my July 12 Kits of Occasions from Christina. When I was making this card, I was also inspired by Michelle's entry into this same challenge. I love how she made a border on the diagonal edges.
Supplies Used (PTI):

Stamps: CAS-Ual Fridays Bold Wishes, Birthday Style
Paper: White, SU Pretty in Pink, Rich Razzelberry, Basic Grey, Island Indigo
Ink: SU Island Indigo, Pretty in Pink, Memento Grey Flannel, PTI Kraft
