This month we're sponored by DRS Designs, who provided some stamps for us to work with. The challenge is to use wet or dry embossing! Cool beans!
Here's what I came up with:
Supplies:CS: (black) The Paper Co., (white) Georgia-Pacific, Kraft: The Paper Co. Stamp: DRS Designs, Ink: ColorBox, Embossing Powder: American Crafts, Embossing Folder: Cuttlebug, Colored Pencil: Berol Prismacolor, Punch: (photo corner) Martha Stewart, Buttons, twine and fabric from stash
Size: 5.5x4.25"
I decided to go with a masculine theme for this fun duck/bunny birthday test stamp cause we all know we don't call our girlfriends old!! For me anyway, masculine means simple, so I kept this super simple. I dry embossed the kraft background with a Cuttlebug folder and I wet embossed the image, so I got both in on this card.
Next up some birthday brightness.
CS: (white) Georgia-Pacific, (yellow) The Paper Co., DP: DeLovely Collection by Cosmo Cricket, Stamps: DRS Designs, Ink: ColorBox, Embossing Powder: American Crafts, Pens: Sakura Souffle, Vinyl Thickers: American Crafts, Ribbon: Wrights, Border Punch: Fiskarssize: 4.25x5.5"
I used a scalloped oval and present backround stamp for this one. I embossed the present background with white embossing powder and colored them in with my Sakura Souffle pens. I paper pieced one present that I added to the bottom of my green embossed scalloped border. I paired it with some fun bright papers from Cosmo Cricket and a big pink bow.
Head on over to Caardvarks to check out all the challenge deets and play along! Don't forget to take a peek at all the DT eye candy while you're there!
Have a great weekend!

Oh my goodness! These are fantastic :) I had to stare at the first card for a while to see the bunny lol
Great cards Heidi. I love the masculine card and giggled at the sentiment, it is too cute! Love the big bow on your HB card! :)
the problem with working as beautifully and pristinely as you do missus, is that when someone like me looks at the second card (for example) they are likely to say, "well *WHERE* is the embossing? i see only fancy store-boughten papers here!" :) :) :)
gorgeous cards--i love the duck/bunny one, especially--in which you totally prove that "simple" and "BORING" are completely unrelated concepts! ♥♥♥
(ps: i often think men are a bit simple, too!!! ...oh wait that might not have been your point there...) ;)
Great B-day cards, Heidi! The masculine one made me LOL, and the birthday brightness looks like a party waiting to happen! xxD
Fab cards, the first because it is perfect for a guy and I love the sentiment, funny! The second, because it's just so bright and cheery!
What a fun card and I love the bright colors on the second one!
