It’s our monthly challenge here at The Male Room and this month we are making Universe card. I have to be creative with this challenge and I came up with Rainbow & Sun on my card, since they are part of the universe, right?! I used the negative of the die to create a rainbow and placed a piece of DSP underneth. I stamped the sun at the corner and finished the card with a sentiment on the die cut piece. I enjoyed creating this card using this fun Boho Vibe Suite, hope you can join us at the challenge.

It’s called Floating Ten Fold Card and I found it on Delight of my Art Site. I used Sweet Jar bundle to create a cookie jar card using 2 different colors. I love the sentiment where you can stamp different words in between Sending & Your Way. I also created a shaded background to make the jar pop and added a sweet red heart (For Heart’s Quest Challenge #76). I hope you enjoyed this card I am making today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

Cardstock – 4 ¼” x 3, score every ½” on 3” side (fold to create a stand)
