Hi there! I needed to make a card for a wonderful male friend of ours who is having a birthday this week, and the palette at the Color Throwdown seemed just right. My design inspiration came from the perfectly clean and simple card by Kryssi Ng over at CASE Study this week.
This is the first time I've inked up PTI's Dot Spot, which I had my eye on for ages before I finally ordered it. There's nothing Earth-shattering about this design, but I'm happy with the way it came out.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Dark Chocolate, Pure Poppy, white)
Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Dot Spot, Birthday Basics)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Baja Breeze, Island Indigo, Chocolate Chip), Clearsnap (Cranberry)
I hope you enjoyed your weekend! Thanks for stopping by tonight!

That is a winner ... love those tiny pops of red.
Who says cards need to be earth shattering? I'm confident your friend will love his birthday card and I too have drooled over this set for awhile.
Fabulous design! Dot Spot captures the feel of the inspiration card beautifully. Thanks for joining us for this week's Color Throwdown.
A wonderful masculine card. You are right, the colours are perfect. I'm sure he will be delighted to receive it :)

This is a wonderful card. I got this set a while back, and have yet to use it. I'm pinning for inspiration--thanks.
Gorgeous card. Love the dot spot stamps in two shades of blue. The red tiny dots are just perfect.
I'm with Stef...love those tiny pops of red on this gorgeous CAS design!
I think it is amazing, especially the strip of red down the side.
