Let's Celebrate - STB #13

LOL! When I created my cards for both challenges today I had no idea I used the same set! 

I always create ahead of time, photograph and write my posts up.

As I gathered everything for my Seize The Birthday post I realized that I created two completely different looking cards with this MFT set. 

Today the Seize The Birthday team are working with this sketch below for a masculine card.

This is what I created :)

Happy Birthday - Seize The Birthday #9

Welcome!

I'm so excited to share some news with you!

About a month or so ago I was asked by Lesley if I wanted to join the Seize The Birthday team :)

I've been playing along with their weekly challenges and thought it would be FUN!

Each week they change it up from Feminine to Masculine birthday cards.

This month we are being sponsored by Uniko Studio.

Unfortunately, the stamps did not arrive in time for me to play but I had created this card early...just in case ;) Mail is always so unpredictable! LOL!
 Using a sweet Pure Innocence image and some fun new My Mind's Eye My Girl designer papers.

Be sure to stop by the Seize The Birthday Challenge Blog to read up on all the details and play along with this week's Feminine Challenge using this sketch:

Dream Big

Hello :)

Thank heaven it's the weekend!

Looks to be a wonderful one too!

I haven't stamped all week but I will need to this weekend as one of my co-workers has put in an order for birthday cards. Plus I want to create some Easter cards for the store to sell.

Here I created a card for last week's Dynamic Duo Challenge #41 of Island Indigo and Pool Party and combined it with Seize The Birthday #7 - Feminine Birthday using a sketch.

I was excited to see that both of my Dynamic Duo Challenge cards made picks this week on their blog :)
The other was my card on Wednesday.

Stamps: Verve's Dream Big Paper: White, Island Indigo, Pool Party Ink: Island Indigo, Pool Party Accessories: SU top note die, Scallop Dies, SU satin ribbon, SU button, Island Indigo Twine, Sewing, Dimensionals
