spectacular sentiments

I'm having a hard time believing it's the end of February! Wasn't is just January 1?!?! But we get an extra day in February thanks to it being a leap year.  Do you know anyone with a February 29th birthday? One of my coworkers has her birthday that day.  I think it's cool.

The challenge at Seize the Birthday this week is all about sentiments! They need to be front and centre for this one. Thanks to team mate Colleen for this one! Nothing to wild and crazy for me on this one... just simple and fun. Hope you like it.  I think it would work for a masculine card... which I never seem to have enough of.

Hope you can join us! Be sure to head over to the blog to see the rest of crafty creatures the team and our Surprise Party Guest Joyce have created.  A big thanks to Joyce for her fabulous creations over the last couple of months.

Have a terrific day and I'll see you in March! Thanks for stopping by.  Always appreciate your comments.

Hey crafty friends! We are having a little reprieve from the fall weather with a whole bunch of sunshine this week!  I'm a summer lover so I'll take the warm temperatures.  I actually don't mind the rain in the winter either though... better than snow!

Seize the Birthday is 'topping free' so I started mucking around with some watercolouring and a vellum layer.  Hope you like it!

Check out our fall Surprise Party Guest, Marianne!  Be sure to head over to her blog and give her some love.  Remember to head over to our blog as well... check out the fabulous creations from the rest of the team.  All the rules & regs are over there too. 

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a terrific day and a wonderful weekend.

Kinda' like me right?  Awesome and vibrant?  LOL....

Happy Thursday crafty friends.  Hope you're having a great week.  I love our challenge this week over at Seize the Birthday - vibrant colours.  I went CAS with mine and added little hits of awesome  bright colours.  Really like how it turned out.

Playing along with The Card Concept Challenge #71 - Fresh Flutters this week.  I've created a CAS card with touch of  Classy and Elegant (you can see all the styles defined here).  I was inspired by this card by Sandie.

Hope you're having a great week!  Thanks for stopping by.

Embossing is the boss!

Happy Thursday and welcome another Seize the Birthday Challenge.  We are playing with 'embossing of any kind' for our option/challenge. The topping is always an option; the birthday theme is really the only requirement. I did both dry and heat embossing on my card.  :) Just got this stamp set a couple of months ago... I can resist stamping in black because it reminds me of a Dymo label maker.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Hope you can play along with us this week.  All the details are on the blog.  Be sure to stop by and give some craft love to the rest of the amazing design team.

Have a terrific day and wonderful weekend.
