Stripes for Seize the Birthday

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Jules wants us to stripe it up!


Of course you can always play along with the anything goes birthday option too, it's a great way to build up your stash of birthday cards.
My team mates and our guest Deepti have some wonderful inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along.


The first thing I thought of for this theme was using up the diecut circles from the windows I've been cutting in cards lately!

This stencil had it's first outing with a few colours of BoBunny glitter paste.
The star is diecut from some glitter card that's a good match for the paste. (Had to add the star to cover up an oopsie with the paste!)
The diecut sentiment was inked with versamark and clear embossed, then layered for dimension.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Make My Monday, use a stencil


Supplies:
Spellbinders and Memory Box circle dies (love how narrow the black border circle is!); Papertrey Ink star die;
MFT candy stripes stencil; Bo Bunny glitter paste; Creative Expressions mini stacked happy birthday die; glitter card; versamark ink & clear ep.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

What fabulous sparkle Cathy and I love the mix of colours of the glitter paste using the MFT Candy Stripes stencil, and the black matted layer and sentiment and the sparkly pink star finish it beautifully. A gorgeous card! x

Fab... considering the star is hiding an ooops moment it's looks very intentional, I like it. Nice take on the challenge theme x

Beautiful glitter stripes Cathy. I thought is was glitter paper you cut but you used glitter paste instead, very creative. Love the colors and the star is perfect if you had an oopsie or not. Love it.

I was wondering how you made your glittery stripes and now I know. This card is glittery and fabulous. I love the multi-colored stripes.

Cathy, This is such a nice bright, and happy card and love the way you incorporated the topping. I think the star was supposed to be there...happy accident!
