It is time for Seize the Birthday Challenge.
Take some time from your holiday card making to make a birthday card.
You know that you will need them. This month the Topping is Presents, so you could combine that with a Christmas card.
If you're not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!
This is a different view. I wanted you to see the layers used. I used my Mini Minc to foil the fun dots then added some sequins too. I saw a video and used this idea on my card. This is where you can find it too. Here
I don't have the reactive mist, but I had a pen that a BFF gave me that worked well. I used double sticky tape for the teal banner. Just like Lydia did.
Stamp set is Power Poppy Party Time. I used a water coloring card stock and my distressed markers to color. Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Mowed Lawn, Peeled paint, Picked Raspberry. Archival Ink , Watering Can.
Thanks for stopping by for a closer look.
Don't forget, we have a Special Party Guest too. Her name is Sherrie Koning and you will find her designs here. Check out what all of the other designers have done Seize the Birthday challenge
Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas to all.
Oh I knew that had to be a PP set, sooooo pretty! That foil looks awesome and I adore the color! I also LOVE the explosion of dots and sequins, like a glitter cannon going off. This is just fantastic!!! Love, looooove, LOVE this! Going to go watch the video, TFS! xo~

Awesome design. Lovely coloring and using the foil really dresses it up. Looks just like an explosion with all the foil flying all over.
ReplyDeletePretty colored packages -- this also qualifies for JUGS; metallic
ReplyDeleteOh, Barb, I love your card! It's gorgeous with this darling stack of gift packages, and your coloring is stunning. The foiling really is fabulous, and I watched Lydia's video, which was very interesting. I don't have a Minc machine (or see that I would ever get one), but I see that I could at least foil the line with tape. Beautifully done, sweet friend, and thanks for sharing it with us! Hugs! xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove the foil confetti you put behind your stack of presents. Fabulous CAS card.
ReplyDeleteThat's one stunning card! I love how you've used the foil - really accentuates the presents - and the presents themselves look awesome!
