Ack! How is it almost September? I fell like the last two months have just disappeared! We've had a great summer so can't complain too much.
At Seize the Birthday this week, we are all about the gold thanks to TaeEun! I had another card ready but then I got some new goodies (the Field Notes Kit) from Lori Craig & Taylored Expressions that I had to play with. There is gold embossing & the little paperclip. I also used my new-ish set from Julie Ebersole & Ellen Hutson for the sentiment. Gotta love it when I can create with goodies designed by two of my favourite crafters!
I know you'll have fun with this! Be sure to check out the blog to see the glorious gold creations our Surprise Party Guest Jen and the rest of the team came up with. This is Jen's last week with us - we'll miss her!
If you're looking for a new colour challenge, be sure to check out the new one Nancy has created - it's called Color Hues! I love playing with color so can't wait to play along.
Wishing you a terrific day and wonderful weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
