Time for another Blog Hop. I haven't done one of these for a while, but it is good to be back.
For the January Blog Hop we were to make a birthday card.
I couldn't decide which one to do so you get to see both of them. Our third son has a birthday tomorrow so the "Out of the Box" card is for him. I got the idea from the Aug. 2008 Cards magazine. I used Pure Poppy and Ocean Tides. Thanks Niki for showing us how to use Faux Ribbon to make background papers.

This idea also came from a Cards Magazine. I used Raspberry Fizz ink and ribbon on this card.
Both of these cards go towards my challenge to make 5 cards using some of my PTI stamps that haven't seen ink in a while.
Here's the count so far:
Butterfly Kisses-0/5
Mailbox Greetings-1/5
Out of the Box-1/5
Out on a Limb-1/5
Silent Night-0/5
Teacher's Apple-0/5
Boxes Bags and Tags-5/5

Both lovely cards.
Oh, these are both wonderful, but that Out on a Limb card just grabs me! Love it!!!
Oh these are just gorgeous - that raspberry fizz is yum - I'm with Marge - there's something about the out on a limb one - tho I'm sure your son will love his card too.
Both are very pretty cards, but somehow the out on a limb card just stands out. You should submit to the GSS entry for a previous stamp set category. It is just beautiful.
I think you have enabled me to get this set. I was thinking so much about getting it, but this card made up my mind. Thanks for sharing.
Both cards are awesome, but I have to say i really love the second one...simple, beautiful, and very classy.
Great cards! Thanks so very much for sharing!
Loving that out on a limb card. Beautiful!
I like both cards but I especailly like the layout of the second card. Out on a Branch makes awesome cards!!!
Oooooooooo just soooo pretty!!!!
Great cards, Diane! I just used OOAL recently, too- hadn't seen ink in a long time! babies~ Beth
