It's A Girl

I've made a couple of new baby cards using a Darice Embossing Folder and some Core'dinations card stock.

I heat embossed an American Crafts sentiment with white embossing powder and cut it out.  The knotted ribbon is from my stash.

and one for a Boy.

Music

This is the Birthday card I made for my eldest sons friend, they are both members of Talking to Amy - my son sings and plays guitar and Max, his friend is the lead guitar player, hence the music theme.

This is a very different card for me - the base card and the panel with the heat embossed Music image have been created with distress inks.  I used my Inkssentials Blending Tool to create the blocks of colour.  The LOTV sentiment has also been heat embossed and the die cut stars have been given a coat of 3D Crystal Lacquer.

The paper that everything is layered onto is American Crafts Classic Calico Collection, it has chevrons on it but they don't really show up in the photograph.  I have kept everything relatively simple with just a punched border and die cut stars as the card is for a teenage boy.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
