Seize the Birthday #175 - Geometric Shapes

Hi Friends! The party continues over at Seize the Birthday and I'm the lucky Surprise Party Guest for September/October.  Every Challenge is always Anything Goes and a special Topping is included for extra fun.  It's not required to include the topping on your birthday card.  

Challenge #175 Topping is Geometric: 

 I enjoy adding Toppings so this time around I went with triangles for my geometric shape:

I started with black cardstock, Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste, and an Abstract Triangle Stencil by KaiserCraft.  It's amazing how the glimmer paste takes on different looks depending on the cardstock.  The black cardstock brings out the gold tones.  Since this card is for a young man, I went with a simple birthday sentiment (MFT Impact Alphabet & Numbers) die cut out of black foam and gold cardstock.  

Here's another card I made since I had all the fixings out.  This one also used the Moonstone Glimmer Paste but on blue cardstock it took on a silver look.  The sentiment was from The Stamps of Life on a MFT triangle die cut stamped and embossed with Catherine Pooler's Something Borrowed ink.  I think this one could be the "girly" card :)

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you can join the birthday party!
