Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday. Colleen has chosen the theme and it's having the sentiment as a focus.
You can always play along with the anything goes birthday option too. The design team and our party guest have lots of wonderful ideas to inspire you, so I hope you can play along.
My niece turns 24 in a week or so. She has a quirky sense of humour and loves meer cats so I hope she likes her card!
The congratulations circle was a smooshed leftover in my bits box, I added some distress ink to cover up the white parts and to brighten the colours. It's layered on a black diecut for extra dimension and a bit of shadow.
The meer cat was stamped in versafine, clear embossed, fussy cut and coloured with Prismacolour pencils. I positioned him in the circle and drew in his eyebrows!
The numbers were diecut, inked with versamark and embossed with Lindys midnight violet embossing powder. I love the intense purple.
Here's a closer look.

What luscious colours on your fun and fabulous circular greeting, Cathy ... the meerkat against them is a riot ... sure has me smiling ... it's bound to have the same effect on your niece! Hugs, Anita :)
What a fun card and love the rainbow colours you have added to this smooshed piece Cathy, and backed with the black, and with the added black sentiment and numbers, works beautifully, also who could resist that cute and fun meerkat which your niece will love of course. x
Haha how fabulous is he, I love how you've showcased him in your smooshed sentiment. He looks like he was made to fit in it... such a fun card, he's a hoot x
Awesome card, Cathy! That meerkat looks like he's having the time of his life! Love the variety of sentiments - be the circle, the embossing or the stamping!
