Seize the Birthday ~ Geometric Shapes ~

We have another fun challenge over at the Seize the Birthday Card Challenge.
Tae Eun is our hostess this time and she thought it would be fun to have geometric shapes on our birthday card!  You would have thought I would make it a masculine one, which I should have done, but it turned out to be kind of girly...
...maybe if I didn't add the butterfly it could have been masculine!  *wink
I made a stencil from a PTI hexagon cover place, then I lightly stenciled on some aqua color, then I added some pieces to the shape for interest.  I added the sentiment using an ombre look with the same color.  So there you have it friends!
Please check out all the inspiration over at the blog and see what our party guest has for you as well as all our regular DT!
 I hope you will join us with a birthday card using any kind of geometric shape you have in your stash!  See you in the gallery!!

Heart Hugs, friends!

  11. Love how you made the stencil for your lovely hexagons and then paper pieced some them also. That ombre sentiment looks great. I think your lovely card is perfect for a guy or gal.
