STAMPIN' UP! MASCULINE BIRTHDAY CARD WITH BROADWAY BOUND DSP

My recent Broadway Birthday card got me thinking about the great Broadway Bound Designer Series Paper, that I have hardly used.  This paper pack has some fabulous bold designs with metallic accents.  I have used a few of these designs on today's card.

The photo doesn't do it justice ... the candle flames are also a lovely shimmery gold.

STAMPIN' UP! BROADWAY BIRTHDAY MASCULINE CARD

Today my youngest son, Ethan, turns 18.  It's bittersweet for Mum.  I am excited for him, to gain the independence of driving himself wherever he wants to go, and to make plans for his future.  As any mother whose children have grown will know, the prospect of "an empty nest", and not being needed for much, is rather sad, though.  Thankfully Ethan plans, after a period of travel at the end of the year, to remain living with me for a while yet.

Here is the card I made for the birthday boy:

STAMPIN' UP! FIRST FROST BIRTHDAY CARD IN GREENS

Today's share features the beautiful new First Frost bundle, and my favourite designs from the Frosted Floral Designer Series Paper pack.  I normally make this birthday girl's cards in blue, but decided these gorgeous papers just had to be used.

The DSP is the star of this card.  The only stamping is the sentiment (from the Darling Label punch box), and one little flower in Tranquil Tide.  I have embellished the flower with a tiny snowflake, from Santa's Workshop enamel shapes, and a rhinestone coloured with my dark Soft Suede Stampin' Blends marker.

Here is a close-up of the cluster of foliage, and the stamped and die-cut flower:
