Our "Topping" option this time is...
If you are not into using the toppings, just make sure it is a birthday card.
Joann is our host for this challenge and she has opted for pastel colors. I do love pastel colors and forget how pretty they can be on a card.
Here is my card
I got some inspiration for this card from Pinterest. I used the Gina K Designs Master Layouts One dies for the background. The design papers are MFT and also the borderline die used here as the birthday candles. I also improvised the flames using a leaf die from PTI. The little sprigs are a die from Tim Holtz. Embroidery floss for bows completed the look that I wanted.
Sometimes you don't need a sentiment on the front to know that it is a Birthday card.
We have a new Surprise Party Guest for the next couple of months.
