Happy Birthday: Mojo Monday 249

I love this sketch from Mojo Monday and I wish I had looked at it earlier! Well, better late than never. :-)

The stamped bicycle image is embossed in black and I used the Cruisin' paper pack. Right now Cruisin' is only available as a Workshop on the Go and will retire on Auigust 1st when the new catalog goes live. Love this paper!

Sit Back and Enjoy the Ride

I tend to create a lot of cards with floral themes which isn't necessarily the type of look I want when sending something to my dad or brother or someone male! So I've been trying to create more masculine types of cards just to keep on hand. I used two of my new stamp sets, Enjoy Life and Two Step Backgrounds on my card.

Enjoy Life:






















Two Step Backgrounds:






















I used the colors from The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC103 to help me along. I love that these colors can work for a masculine card yet there is no brown in them! It seems that I always revert to brown for masculine cards so it's nice to play with a brighter palette.


Here is the card I came up with.
