Welcome to another SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE where our Hostess is JoAnn and the topping is using RED as the main color on your birthday card!
Here I used a Lisa Horton EF: Buttercup Bloom. It comes with an outline die cut which is really nice because it gives all the impressions in the leaves and flowers from the embossing folder. So I cut it twice once with white card stock and then red. I managed to cut out the red flowers and leave the white leaves. I did dab on a bit of Lunar Paste: slippery when wet on the center of the flowers.
My sentiment is from MFT: Anything but Basic Birthday Wishes
My red coverplate is a Pinkfresh Floral & Diamond Tile Coverplate that I decided to cut at an angle.
We have lots of inspiration for you over at the blog from all our Party Guests and the Design team.]
Please welcome:
I look forward to seeing your card in the gallery!
I did make another mostly red birthday card and thought I would share it also:
I used a Spellbinders: Hearts EF,
Penny Black: Together Forever (bear with balloons)

Wow, Colleen, what a striking card! Your angled design looks fabulous. As for the bonus card, super cute!
There are soooo many things that I love about this card. That background done with the angle, those flowers with the white leaves and the sentiment following the angle. All super crafty and excellent.
I love that design on the first card with the angle and cover plate. Red is such a striking color that stands out beautifully. The bear with his heart balloons is adorable and a fun card.
Two fantastic cards, friend. I love the first one in particular. So much dimension and so pretty.
Two fabulous cards, Col. LOVE the first one with that gorgeous background with your pretty flowers popped on top. Your red and white combination is so striking, especially with the little touches of gold. Your second card is so adorable. Great colouring of that sweet little bear!! xx
Look at you with a Twofer! Love each one but the bear card might have my heart a little more. Great job!
Love the flower card - so pretty with the bg die. Super cute bear card too
Love the gorgeous layers on the floral card Colleen, the angled design is so pretty too. That is one cute little bear too :) Cathy x
Wow, Wow, Wow! This is just stunning!!! I love all of the wonderful layers.
The first card is so elegant with the slanted layout and pretty background to show off the beautiful embossed leaves and flowers! Love the little bear with his red balloons too!
I love the red florals and white leaves in the first one - a pretty unique combo and looks awesome! And the whole arrangement of the second one, especially matching the heart embossing with the heart in the image looks really lovely. Two absolutely gorgeous cards!
These are both so great Colleen! Gorgeous flowers & great diagonal panel on the first one and great colouring & clouds on the send one. The heart background is so perfect for the image.
Great Twofer, Colleen! Love the floral card with the big blooms and leaves, and the teddy card is gorgeous!
Love both of your cards Colleen. Lots of red on both of them. That bear is so cute with his red balloons.
