The Card Concept #6



Hello and happy Wednesday! Well, the ice storm missed us, but we ended up with about four inches of sleet with a couple of inches of snow on top. Not exactly what I want this time of year, but considering it could have been so much worse, I'm not complaining :) Saturday I spent the whole day sitting at my work area, watching the snowflakes fall outside the window and making Christmas ornaments! It was heavenly:) As for extending my Christmas through January, I think I'll make it on through March too ;)


It is time for  another challenge at The Card Concept! Yay!


Check out the inspiration photo this time around! Isn't that fabulous! As soon as I saw it, I immediately thought, this has to be a guy card. I have a hard time not putting a flower on my cards, but I do love geometrical designs, so I really had fun with this one :)



Here's what  I came up with!


I LOVE these dies from Avery Elle! I have used them so many times ( not always posted here), and I love the way I can come up with so many different designs and fun colors. The sentiment is from Avery Elle also. 

Thanks so much for stopping by! Stop by and see what the other designers have created and  I hope you'll join us for the challenge at The Card Concept!

Hugs,


Kay :)

  1. Wow! This card packs a whallop! I mean that in the nicest way. LOVE the colors. I think those dies are super neat. And how fun that you can find so many designs with them. The design may seem simple but every piece is placed just right and that can mean lots of fiddling to get them there. I'm glad you weren't affected too badly by the ice storm. It sounds like you made the most of the time! Thanks for sharing, Kay and have a happy day!
