Absolutely great card! I love the pattern you created and how you highlighted Ryan! Can you send this to my house? My Ryan will be 16 in about 14 months :)!

So fun and trendy! Cards for guys that age can be so tricky, but this is perfect. Love the way you framed the letters in the hexagons.

I love the colors and hope to catch a minute to play along. Orange is so HOT right now! The letters inside are a fun touch - a perfect boy card. HUGS.

Perfect card for a 16 year old boy. I've been neglecting this challenge, but will try to play along, since Canyon Clay is one of my new faves. Great use of those hexagons, which I love.

Kara, what a great use of the colors! I'm loving these hexagons so much that I want to get mine out to play with again :)

This card is fabulous!!
Love the way you used the colors and those hexagons...
my set is hopefully on it's way and when it was first released I didn't think I would use the hexagons...
you have convinced me otherwise! ;)

Fun birthday card Kara. I so get how difficult cards are for this age, but you handled it brilliantly.
