For today's color challenge, I used a Trader Joe's Dark caramel chocolate bar box for the sea graphic for the boy's birthday card- embossed with Sizzix' Branches with Leaves #2, and used SU's So Many Scallops for my birthday greeting.
For the girl's birthday card, I used SU's Birthday Hugs and Wishes, and a coneflower stamped image from my stamping friends. Have a sunny day!

Julia, how sweet that you made one card for a boy and one for a girl. So genius to use the TJ box for the beautiful nautical scene. As much as I love everthing from TF's, I have not incorporated anything for a stamping project, but maybe I should try that....
