This seems appropriate because the mid-west got a ton of  snow the last few days!  It is a sweet card, no specific sentiment so can be used for any occasion.  Personally, I love it for a child birthday card!!

Supplies: 
Tools: Oval Punch, Top Notes Die, Decorative Label Punch
Accessories: Red Polka Dot Ribbon

Not too many items used today but just an easy card that is easy to whip up!

Blue Masculine Birthday

Masculine Birthday
Masculine Cards are hard to come by.  Here is a dual toned blue birthday card.  The layout is classic and simple which is why it makes for the perfect man card.  However, change up the colors and sentiment and viola you've got a whole new look!  

The card flap coordinates with the patterned paper, I think it adds just a little something extra  ;)

Supplies: 
Stamps: Happy Birthday Everyone
Tools: Lots of Labels Framelit
Accessories: Neutrals Button, Twine
Inks: Tempting Turquoise
