Seize the Birthday - Black and White only

Welcome to another great challenge here at Seize the Birthday!

    Our "Toppings" option this time is...
Black and White only!


Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

If you're not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!
The choice is yours!
This challenge was my idea and the theme is black and white.  Boy I really really wanted to add some color to this card as I was making it, but I stuck to the theme and I really like what I got.  
Using the wreath builder form Gina K Designs made it easy to do. Here it is. 

 When making a square card, it needs an envelope and I have a memory keeper envelope maker for that. I made this matching one. 
Be sure to see what the other designers at Seize the Birthday have done for inspiration and please don't forget our Surprise Party Guest, Julie Beech.  
 Thanks for stopping in and I certainly appreciate your comments.
