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 #7 and CASology # 1

Seize the Birthday is a fairly new challenge....one that gives you two sketches a month, the first week you use the sketch for a female birthday card, the second week, a male card.  This is a good way to have fun with challenges and fill up with birthday cards!  This week it is about the female card, so I pulled out my Make a Wish set from PTI and the sentiment from Beautiful Butterflies.  I used aqua mist and raspberry fizz for my "female colors"!
I forgot to add the sketch the first time...so here you go!   I am also adding this to the CASology challenge where the cue card word is flame.  You can go HERE to CASology blog to get inspired and link up your card.
