Seize The Birthday - Stamping Only


Time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday, and today our optional topping is stamping only.  If you're not comfortable with this and want to add diecuts, embossing, embellishments or whatever, you can still play along with any birthday-themed project.

I've used Inked Flora from Altenew on a smooshed background.

Pop on over to the Seize TheBirthday blog for a look at some fabulous inspiration from our guest designer, Julie Beech, and the rest of the design team, and play along with us.
