Seize the Birthday #237


Can you believe it's time again already for a new Seize the Birthday challenge?  My days/weeks/months all seem to run together nowadays.  Please tell me that I' not alone.


My focal point is a huge clue to the new Topping.  




My card started with the butterfly stamp and die.  I chose to do some heat embossing onto vellum to create the wings which I adhered to the pink cardstock body at only the center point.  I taped off the top portion of a white panel and ink blended a very subtle ombre onto the lower portion.  The panel was then run through my die cutter with a pegboard cover die.  After heat embossing the sentiment in white onto a strip of black cardstock, all that was left was to assemble the components and add a few clear aqua droplets.  

Whether you're Team Butterfly or Team Hummingbird we are excited to see your creations.  If you're not a Toppings sort of person then any birthday card works.  Come visit our blog for more inspiration.  We hope to see you in our gallery!

Supplies:
MFT Brilliant Butterflies stamp and die set
MFT - Bitty Birthday Wishes stamp set
MFT - Pegboard Cover Up
Studio Katia - gems


Thank you so much for spending a bit of your day with me.

  9. This is so much fun! Love the background and that butterfly is perfection! I was team butterfly by virtue of having no hummingbirds in my stash!
