Tracey's Birthday Linky Party is going on all week. Everyone is invited to share in the fun. If you are looking for Tracey's Birthday Linky Party, please click here.
My first card today is for this week's ColourQ cQc #214. I thought these colors would work well for a masculine birthday card, and I used my brand new Confetti Garland Borders stamps and dies to make a quick CAS card.
I decided to stamp a little on the inside, too.
Off to Paris using City Scene with my card for Seize the Sketch STS #7 and CAS-ual Fridays CFC119: Embossing. I used some paper from Basic Grey Persimmon and embossed it with the Sunrise Impression plate.
I am also entering both of these cards into this week's Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Keep it Clean and Simple.

Love them both, Joyce! The first one would be great for a guy & I better go get the one made that's already late going in the mail!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great pair of cards Joyce! Love the first one with the confetti garland, very festive and fun. Thanks so much for joining us at the ColourQ!
ReplyDeleteTwo more amazing cards Joyce...love them both! That Paris card is so striking with the embossed red, wow!
ReplyDeleteOui Oui! I probably spelled that wrong, but I love that Paris card. The sunshine embossing is my favorite part...how neat that you used it on a city scene card. I bet that was fun to stamp the confetti garland card...so many different combination.
