Seize The Birthday - Snowy Background


Hello, and welcome to a new year of Seize The Birthday!  Our first theme of the year is Snowy Background, chosen by Barb. 

As with all our challenges, you can always play along with Anything Goes if you prefer.

I used a Tim Holtz background stamp on blue card, and a mason jar layered stamp set from The Greetery.  The flowers are also Tim Holtz.  I inked in the stalks, as you'd normally see them through a glass jar.

Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some more fabulous inspiration from the team, and from our Surprise Party Guest, Julie.

  3. I totally love the look of this card. They look like spring flowers with that snowy background, made me think of a new beginning to a new year. Not sure why, but it did.

  4. I love that you totally just made a splatter background and went a totally different direction this week. It really shows are players that anything is possible with this topping. Great card!

  7. It's so nice to have some fresh flowers in the house in the winter, so I think this is a perfect card! :) Beautiful job stamping the mason jar. (I can be layered-stamp challenged... :D)
