I am happy to share a card that my daughter & downline member made for a graduation. Beth hit it out of the park with her masculine card.

The combination of Summer Starfruit, Early Espresso and an accent of basic black screams masculine. Notice the sublty sanded ridges that were created with the Stripes Embossing Folder on the Early Espresso Coordination cardstock. Although Beth used some ribbon, it just enhances her color palette and the knot balances the design. The Labels Collection Framelits created the perfect stage for her "blue ribbon".

The Blue Ribbon stamp set is a good all purpose set that allow you to enhance the middle of the ribbon anyway you would like. It has inserts appropriate for birthday , congratulations or graduation to list a few of the possibilities.
Thanks Beth for sharing your card with us!

It's the last day of the 3-day challenge. My final card uses the same basic supplies as my 2 previous cards – Label Something stamp set & Birthday Basics dsp. In addition, I used some Bermuda Bay dsp from the Brights DSP Stack along with some embellishments & colored cardstock.

The Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder adds texture & dimension to the background.

Strips of Crisp Cantaloupe c.s. were punched with the Scallop Edge Border Punch. And the patterned dsp from the Bright Stack was cut with the Deco Labels Collection. Bermuda Bay Candy Dots added the final touch.

Of the three cards posted during the challenge, which is your favorite? Do you prefer a clean & simple style, a more elaborate style, or something in between? Please leave a comment below with your thoughts. I appreciate your comments and I do read each and every one of them.
