SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY~ NUMBER CRUNCHING


Hi friends, welcome to another SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE brought to you by Cathy!

Her topping this time is "number crunching"...use a number on your birthday card!

If you are not a toppings person, you can always just make a birthday card!

It just so happens I have a granddaughter who is celebrating her 20th birthday in a few days, so this was appropriate to make a numbered birthday card for her!

 


 

I used a freebie from the Greetery, it is a stencil with the balloon and all the confetti.  I used DOX ink to color in the confetti and also the number and the string.  The sentiment is from the Greetery:  Opposites attract!

We have Bonnie as our Special Party Guest for the last time, I hope you have been inspired by her wonderful cards, you can find her HERE to see her card for this challenge.

Please check out all the designers cards as well as the Guest who won the last challenge.

You can find her HERE


Heart Hugs, friends!

I appreciate the way you made this a feminine balloon by putting the flowers on it. A great way to make a personalized card for a special person.
