Geometric + Word Die/s for Seize the Birthday

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Nance wants us to use geometric shapes and a word die for this round.

Or if geometry's not your thing play with our anything goes birthday theme.

Our party guests and my team mates have some great inspiration for you so I hope you can play along.

I haven't used this stencil for ages and thought I'd CASE my own card with it.
I added some extra orbs but kept the same colour scheme. Love the 3D effect!
I added a layer of glossy black card to the sentiment to make it pop.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

AAA Birthday

Stencil Fun Challenge, playing along with the anything goes stencil option.


Supplies:
Funky Fossil stencil; distress oxide inks; Creative Expressions mini stacked birthday die and Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die.

Thanks for visiting, and have a great week,
Cathy x

  2. I love this card and the stencilled orbs are so clever with their 3D effect...funny how the eye is deceived, and the colours are great, and beautifully finished with a glossy black die cut sentiment which goes perfectly. I just wanted to check that I am right and that there is no stamping , only I see you have entered Addicted to Stamps and More. x

  4. I do apologise, I obviously have never read the rules properly and I have always thought that stamps had to be involved over at this challenge and now I will know in the future this isn't the case. x
