SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY 2021!! "SNOWY BACKGROUND"

And may it be a Happy NEW Year for us ALL!

Barb is our hostess and keeping with a "winter" theme she is looking for a "snowy background" on your birthday card!

Here is what I used to make this BIRTHDAY card:

                Penny Black:  Snowflake Stitched Frame

MFT:  Winter Songbirds

copics for background

Dreamweaver glossy white embossing paste

stickles

      

I hope you will join us for this challenge.  Please check out the design team and our special party guest, Julie for more inspiration on our "Snowy Background" Birthday themed card!            

Heart Hugs, friends!
