Hi everyone and Happy New Year!
It's time for us to start off the year with our Seize the Birthday challenges again and I am the host for this first one in 2025.
I thought it would be good to use some new goodies - I'm hoping to use more of my existing stash this year!!
Or play along with our anything goes challenge to add to your birthday card stash.
Our party guests Amanda, Valerie, Denise and my team mates have loads of inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along.
I made this card for my sister's birthday.
She's a fan of roses and red so hopefully she likes it!The die is new to me from Memory Box. I added ink to the rose base with a finger dauber and the background is designer paper. Love it on the hammered card base.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
AAA Cards, without the optional twist
Supplies:
Dies: Memory Box scribble rose trio & background; Spellbinders standard circles; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle.
Other: Craft Consortium ink drops rose designer paper; picked raspberry distress ink; Happy Little Stampers doodled flowers sentiment; versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep.
Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

The total card is so delicate, but if you look closer, that marbled background and the textured paper add so much to this CAS card. Thanks for this fun challenge.
Beautiful card, Cathy! I love the stylised roses and their soft shading, and the deep colour of the background paper shows them off beautifully!
Cathy, great challenge. Your roses are so beautiful on your patterned paper and love how you enhanced them inking with the dauber. Beautiful card. Happy New Year.
