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 ~ NO TOPPING!

Hi friends!  Welcome to another Seize the Birthday Cahllenge where we do NOT have a topping, so you can make any kind of birthday card!
Well, I couldn't resist another "springy" card, especially since my BFF gave me a couple of wonderful Altenew cards with flower stamps!
I couldn't stop with just one card, though...
These flowers are called "Stunning Cosmos".  I LOVE the cosmos flowers, IRL they are so showy and tall blowing in the wind and their colors are gorgeous!
Thanks for stopping by and having a look, I hope to see you in the gallery playing along with any kind of BIRTHDAY card!


Heart Hugs, friends!
