Hi friends, this is our last Seize the Birthday Challenge for 2024!
We are taking the month of December off, but will be back with more challenges in January 2025!!
Today's challenge is all about making a masculine birthday card and Barbara is our hostess!
I have to admit I am not that great with masculine cards and my stash of stamps is limited!
But I decided to go with a fun kind of rainbow leaf design.
I watched a video by Gina K (HERE)showing a monochromatic card using these leaves from the Autumn Silhouette stamp set. I changed it up by blending rainbow colors in the three circles, then stamping the leaves and following what Gina did with her monochromatic design.
I hope you will be joining us for this last challenge of the year!
Check out our Special Guest FRAN for even more inspiration.
I look forward to seeing your card in the gallery!!
Terrific CAS card, Colleen! Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to see that you created a masculine card that was a bit softer looking. Not all cards for guys need to be bold and bright and textured. You have made a wonderful example of that. I look forward to seeing you in the gallery in the next year. Hoping that you have more time with family and the crafting that you love.
ReplyDeleteLeaves certainly work for a masculine card~ Have a great holiday
ReplyDeleteGreat masculine, card, Col. Love the colors you used. Fun card.
