Seize the Birthday #319 - Cathy Rainbow of Colors


Our second Challenge for January at STB is hosted by Cathy.  She would like us to make a card using a Rainbow of Colors.  Please come and join in the fun and see the inspiration by our DTs.

I used Gina K's Bold Blossoms that I had stenciled in my stash and a new frame by Penny Black, Double Frames that I got from my BFF, Col for Christmas.  The ink blending is with Gina K's inks.  The sentiment is from Gina's 12 Days of Christmas, Cheers to Another Year.




If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just

stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!
The choice is yours!

Seize the Birthday #318 Barbara - Make Snowflake Background



Welcome back.  Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas/Holiday.  It is always so special with small children.  The triplets are 7, still (hopefully in the believing stage).  We shall see.  We have the older kids coming down for a couple of days.  
Unfortunately, we won't be seeing my older son and his family for Christmas, but we are planning on a Spring Break visit to Arizona for a visit.
Well, on to our 1st STB challenge for the New Year.  Our hostess is Barb, and she would like us to make a snowflake background for our card.
I used Gina K.'s Ornate Frame, Delicate Snowflakes for the background stamp.  Pretty Posy for sentiments and Friendly Silhouettes stamp set.  Also, some Poly Glaze Snowflakes from A little Something kit.
