STAMPIN' UP! BROADWAY BIRTHDAY & BRIGHTLY GLEAMING MASCULINE BIRTHDAY CARD #2

This birthday card, made for my nephew, features my current favourite colour combo of Night of Navy, Copper, and Very Vanilla.  I've used two of the fabulous papers from the Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper pack; great for guy cards, don't you think?

I've taken  a couple of close-up shots of some of the copper elements, so you can get a better "view" of them.  I stamped the birthday boy's age in Celestial Copper Delicate ink.  You can best see the shimmer on the "4".

In this photo, you can also better see the shimmer of the Celestial Copper Delicata Ink, and the lovely shine of the Copper Foil die cut:

STAMPIN' UP! CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN CARDINAL CARD IN RED & VANILLA

I chose the colour scheme for today's card (Real Red and Very Vanilla) based on the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper I was planning to use.  As it turned out, I used only a small panel of the striped paper ... but I love the colours together, with some gold injected into the mix.

The sweet little cardinal image is a stamp from Christmas Countdown.  I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, on Very Vanilla card, then coloured it using Stampin' Blends.  The patterned panel on which I've mounted the stitched oval was created by repeatedly stamping another stamp from Christmas Countdown, on Very Vanilla card in Real Red ink.  The gold glimmer foliage is from Frosted Frames dies (cut down, to selectively use just the pieces I wanted).  Don't you just love the elegance of the Stylish Scroll embossed background?

STAMPIN' UP! BRIGHTLY GLEAMING NIGHT OF NAVY & COPPER CHRISTMAS CARD 2

My favourite elements on today's card are the sweet denim bows, and the ornate scrolly stamp I used as the "strings" for the ornaments.
