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.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
