It's Friday! Any fun plans this weekend? Our high school football team is in the third round of the state playoffs, so we'll be cheering them on for a victory tonight. We live in a great town and it is absolutely awesome to see all the positive support for the team!
I have two cards to share with you today. The current Verve Diva Dare is to create a card with a common shape. For my card, I used arrows. I love the new chevron arrows. I paired it up with some patterned MME paper. This paper is a more masculine paper back. Definitely need more masculine cards in my house of all boys!
While I had my Verve Chevron Love set out, I also created a very traditional birthday card below. Have a favorite?

Hope the game goes well tonight - good luck to all the boys. Love both cards Lynn, but I think the balloons card sneaks in as a favourite :)
ReplyDeleteI love them both and I know the feeling of always needing masculine cards...such is the life of a mom of boys! Wouldn't have it any other way! ;) I LOVE LOVE those balloons! Especially with the little enamel dot on each one. AWESOME!
