Circles, stripes, dots are in order for this masculine birthday card. A few challenges have popped up that I wanted to play in so I searched my embossing folders for some circles. Using the Tim Holtz Alterations Retro Circles embossing folder for my background on GKD Sandy Beach cardstock, I then die cut some patterned paper from my stash in a dots background and striped background layering them on navy cardstock. Sentiment is GKD Sweet Sentiments will complete my card today.

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and be safe.
We are on that roller coaster of weather again. Above average temperatures with lots of rain, then boom a 20 degree drop with high winds. Not sure in March will come in like a lion but I’m sure it will be an interesting weather month.

I love this layout! Perfect to show off fun papers, and I really like how you arranged your circles. The deep blue with the sandy beach looks great as well.
Thanks, Lisa.
Great masculine card. I like your mix of patterns. You’ve really nailed the challenges.
Thanks, Judy. The pattern papers came from the same pack so I was hoping they would work together.
Great card! Perfect masculine patterns and colors.
THanks, Lia.
