One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Seize the Birthday ~ It's Just a Number!

Time for a new Seize the Birthday Challenge and the theme is "It's Just a Number"!
I used the number cuttlebug embossing folder for the background and die cut the number "9" because my youngest grandson just turned that age!  I thought he would like this because it has a riddle, when you open it up it says:
I think he will get a big kick out of this!
So friends, the TOPPING for this challenge is about NUMBERS!  Of course you can forgo the topping and just make a birthday card!
I will look forward to seeing your card in the gallery.
Friends we have a NEW PARTY GUEST WITH US FOR THE NEXT TWO MONTHS!
Be sure to check out her blog! 

Heart Hugs, friends!

Oh I am loving this card for a grandchild. The riddle is just the best and it is so hard to make a card for the young ones that catch their interest. Happy MOther's Day!
