Seize the Birthday Anything Goes


Hi Friends, It's Seize the Birthday time! This week the topping is "Anything Goes"! You can make ANY birthday card and link it up. 

This time I made a simple shaker card. I layered some patterned paper on a black card stock mat and die cut a Spellbinder Star. I added foam tape to the back and piled up some pretty SSS sequins in the center. 
I white heat-embossed a Newton's Nook Happy Birthday sentiment from the cocktails stamp set on black cs. I set the whole panel on a patterned paper background cut to A2 size. 
I have enjoyed my guesting at Seize the Birthday so much!
Thanks for visiting today!

Seize the Birthday Vibrant Colors


Hey Friends, how are you this fine day? It's time for another Seize the Birthday challenge! This time our "topping" is Vibrant Colors! Or you can always choose "anything goes" if you wish. 
I had to pick up this cute monster stamp set and dies for cards for my Grandson. This was his card last month. 
I colored the adorable MFT monsters with Copic Markers and highlighted them with white gel pen. I coordinated my images with this cute polka dot paper to tie them together. By using a lot of white card stock, the monsters are greatly showcased. It was very fun to make, especially for my favorite boy.

I'm enjoying being a guest for Seize the birthday. Thanks for visiting.

Inspired by all the little things 83





Hi Friends, Today for Inspired by all the little things we have some pretty flowers to inspire you. The possibilities are endless. I wanted to have my flowers all in a line like the photo.

 I used Hero Arts CL476 stamp set for my flowers. The design of this card is a little off because I didn't use common design principles like "using odd numbers" and the "rule of thirds". I struggled with this and tried many times to get what I wanted. In the end I just die cut the panel with a wonky stitched die, added some wood veneer hearts and call it a day. 

Our guest this week is Cat Craig! Come by the blog and check us all out.
See you soon!
