Split Card Textures Dies used w/ Lighthouse Point Stamp Set (plus 2 Flowery Cards)

 

 
This handsome masculine Birthday card was a recent class project.  Colors include:
Basic Gray, Smoky Slate, White & Rich Razzleberry
 
I used the following StampinUP Products:
--Mountain Air Stamp Set
--Lighthouse Point Stamp Set
--Split Card Textures Dies
--All That Dies
--Lighthouse Dies
--Peaceful Moments Stamp Set

 

 
 I had left over card kits from class, so the next couple of cards use the same main colors and pcs. of card stock.  I just switched the sentiments out & added some ribbon.  The Botanical Layers stamp set was used on this thank you.
 
 
 
 
 
For this "flowery" Birthday card, I used the Art Gallery stamp set.  I made this card to be horizontal instead of the vertical layout for the other 2 creations.  Questions??  Please ask!
