This is a very short posting. Just wanted to show this male birthday card that I've made. The dreaded male card...yikes...so I've kept it very simple.
This card is also my entry into the following challenges:
Double Dutch Challenge #38 - Boys Only
Roses on Paper Challenge 32 - A card for men or boys
All Sorts Challenge Week 32 - Just for Men
Creative Inspirations Challenge 29 - a Male Card
Creative Card Crew - Celebrations
It's a very colourful card. I don't know who the manufacturer of the DP is. I found the paper in the dollar store and I thought it would be perfect for a birthday card. There was no writing on the back of the paper.
That's all for today. Thanks for visiting. Enjoy what's left of your weekend.
Stamps: Magnolia Heartbreaker Edwin from the Raising the Ceiling Collection (can be purchased form Magnolia-licious).
Tools: EK Success border punch.
Misc.: Making Memories brads, Darice pearl stickers.

Norma you are right..male cards are so hard to do! But I think you have done a great job!
Looks great!
Love this boy's card - the balloons are a perfect backdrop! AND the fact that he's sitting on a balloon - inspired!

I love the balloon you've created, the perfectly colored Edwin, and the striking black matting! This is such a wonderful card--your work is so inspiring!

Ha! Yes, cards for boys and men are so hard... which is why I made sure I had at least a couple of Edwins to go with all my Tildas.
Love your card! Simple yet so colourful and bright!
Great card! I love the Magnolia images. They can be used so many ways!
