Seize The Birthday - No Topping

Hellooo, and welcome to 2018 at the Seize The Birthday Challenge!


We're easing you into the New Year gently - it's a No Topping challenge, yay!  Do what you like, as long as it's birthday-themed.


I've used Crazy Cats and Crazy Things by You-Know-Who, and a sentiment from Visible Image.  There's a strip of embossed silver card, and it's all mounted onto patterned paper.

Our Surprise Party Guest this month is Kristie Goulet - check out her fab card, and those of the design team, on the Seize The Birthday blog, and play along with us.

  3. He is really a crazy cat with a look on his face that I could put a ton of snarky sentiments with. Love this fun card.

  4. I'm chuckling at your "you-know-who" reference! :D I'm glad to see another crazy-animal by h!m on the team, and I love how you used this cat here! Leaving him mostly uncoloured really makes him pop against that fun background... I feel a CASE coming on! ;)
