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 ~ for a KID!

Seize the Birthday is hosted by Lindsey this time and she says, "let's make a card for a kid"!
What kid doesn't love to swing the bat at a PINATA?  
I used an image (Life of the Party) from a retired stamp company, Fresh Squeezed Stamps.
I used a balloon image from the same stamp set and used versamark to get a watermark for the background.  I colored in the pinata with copic.
I hope you will play along with us and make a card for a "kid" and I will see you in the gallery!


Heart Hugs, friends!
