Good Morning friends! I hope you are all well this Thursday morning. I have a couple of cards I made on Tuesday. I pulled out a really old set from PTI, Shapes by Design. I think it was designed by Alli Miles.
My first card uses a craft base and a color scheme of dark chocolate, summer sunrise, and orange zest. Its a little too 70's for me but it was a lot of stamping so I will give it out for the next guy birthday we celebrate. If I were to do it again I would change the colors.
I like this next one a lot better. Color scheme of New Leaf, Viridian Green, Dark Chocolate,Golden Harvest and Summer Sunrise. Shapes by Design stamp set.
I notice I am getting a lot of crafting done now that its summer. I am also not working this summer for the first time in 5 years. I miss my little summer jobs- but there wasn't anything to be had this summer. However more time for relaxing and crafting. We spent a very enjoyable day yesterday at my daughter's promotion from 6th grade. One of her friend's parents invited us over for an impromptu BBQ. It was really fun and its always nice to get to know the parents of her friends. As for today I am off to spin class in a few minutes. I am completely rusty but its a great workout- for the body and the mind too. Its good when your muscles are nice and sore. (Or so I tell myself!) Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Fun, fun, fun!! Love the geometric shapes and the colors are fabulous!
I have never seen this stamp set before. Your cards are both so fun. I like that retro look, and I like both color schemes. I hope you enjoyed your spin class. I am addicted, and spend the entire class thinking about the cards I plan to make. I get my best ideas on the bike.
These are great! I need to check that set out!
I've never noticed this set before, Michele! I love how you've used it!
Awesome! I haven't seen this set either!
What a fun set. I've never seen it before. Great colors on both.
Nice work! I've only made one card using this set. I like what you've done!
Fantastic "male" cards...
maybe it's the colors...
but the design isn't too "fussy"...
and I just think they're perfect for those men in our lives...
young and old! :)
Either way...
they're both fantastic!
Fun cards, Michelle! and perfect for both genders. I thought I knew all the PTI sets,but I don't remember these stamps--such great graphic designs.
Oh I love these and working with engineers these would be perfect for them!

Very, very cool, Michele! I love getting a fresh look at an "old" stamp set--and now I know another one that will make great masculine cards too! Thanks for sharing!
Michele, I love this post and the other one with the overlapping circles! I've just put this set on my list and put your cards with links to your blog posts in my Evernote file. These are fab.u.lous!!!!
Great set of cards, Michele. The repeating graphic design is mesmerizing!! Very cool!
