Seize The Birthday - Water


Welcome to another Seize The Birthday!  For this challenge our optional topping is Water: ocean, river, rain, water spritzing, watercolours, or water in a jar - what will your choice be?

I've used a large single image stamp from Woodware, watercoloured with Distress Inks and added a birthday sentiment from Concord & 9th.

Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some more fabulous inspiration from the rest of the Design Team and our surprise party guest, Trina P, and play along.  If you're not into water, you can still play along with any birthday-themed project.

  10. You just added the 'water in a jar' choice, didn't you? He he!
    But I do love the card - water in the jar - very innovative. Its such an essential part in images like that, but often overlooked, but here, in this card, it becomes one of the essential components! And I totally love the image you've used too!
