Seize the Birthday: let's celebrate!



We're back with a new sketch over on Seize the Birthday!


We're working on both masculine and feminine birthday cards!

Remember you have 2 weeks to complete a birthday card, or two or more, and link up!

Our Super Sponsor is



Here's how I was inspired by the sketch:


I used Neat & Tangled's stamp set, Party Dots.  The banner and sentiment are from that set.  You can't quite tell from the photo but it has been stamped on a pale grey paper to compliment the American Crafts silver glitter paper.

The patterned paper is from the Studio Calico May Card kit and I used a SRM sticker.

Can you read the patterned paper?

Love you to the stars and back.

sigh.

Stashing this card away for Darin's next birthday.
