♡♡ Seize the Birthday: Birthday Girl ♡♡

on May 02, 2013

I'm super thrilled to announce that I've joined the

Seize the Birthday Team!!!!

We are working on creating both masculine and feminine birthday cards this year!

The linky will close at Noon (EST) on Tuesdays and voting will start.

Voting ends on Wednesday at Noon (EST).
Winners will be announced on Thursday at 11 am (EST).

Our Super Sponsor is

The Cutting Cafe!

Here's my card, I rotated the sketch:

I used The Cutting Cafe's Beautiful Blooms for the vase and the sentiment is from Polaroid and Camera Fun.

I found the Jenni Bowlin blooms in my stash....perfect for that Cutting Cafe Vase, dontcha think?! I topped everything off with some Tuxedo Black Timeless Twine.

Make sure you pop over to the Seize the Birthday blog to see how the Design Team was inspired by the sketch and to find out who the other newbies are!!
