I find that almost all of my cards are more feminine, with flowers or ribbons or "girly" colors. Even when the colors may be more masculine, I have a hard time not adding a bit of ribbon to a card to finish it off. I made this card as part of a color combination challenge. The challenge was to use Pumpkin Pie, Bashful Blue, and Night of Navy together. I decided that this was a great color combo for a more masculine card, so I resisted the urge to dress it up or add any bling, and this is what I came up with. In real life, the orange balloons do match the card stock, so it looks better in person. I added a strip of my favorite paper--the patterns designer series paper in Night of Navy to the bottom of the card and then stamped the images and layered everything. Pretty easy! I think I'll have to try this same color combination in a girly card as well.
