Candles for Seize the Birthday

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Colleen has chosen candles as our theme.


Or you can play along with our anything goes birthday option, it's a great way to build up your stash of birthday cards.


Our party guest and my team mates have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope to see you in the gallery.

I was never really into cute images, but am finding the older I get the more appealing they are lol!!
I bought this set as the tall candle cracked me up... and I love giraffes :)

I coloured the image with prismacolour pencils, and clear embossed the diecut letters for some shine.
(I may buy the matching die as colouring onto the actual card is too stressful lol!)

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday, anything goes
Little Red Wagon, Happy Happy Birthday

    This card is so cute and it is appropriate that the candle, in this case is tall.
