ColourQ #214, Seize the Sketch #7 and CAS-ual Fridays 119.



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.

  4. Oui 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.
