Seize the Birthday with " Toppings"

Welcome to Seize the Birthday
It's an Anything Goes Birthday type of challenge with a "Toppings " Option!
Remember that a Topping is infact an "Option" and not a requirement!
Because not everyone always wants a cherry on top...now do they??



So this week your "Toppings" option is
" Monochromatic."  

If you decide to add a topping to your Birthday card/project it
should exude one particular color of your choice!
Remember you can always add neutrals to your design!

If your not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!

The choice is yours!


Now let's go see what our Design Team has for you!


The Design Team



























The Design Team has created such awesome samples including
 some "Toppings" to get you in the mood.
We can't wait to see what you all do this time!!

I wonder if we can " TOP" 
the 172 participants we had last time? LOL

Do you need a sketch to get you started? 
 Why not come and visit our sister challenge
 called "Seize the Sketch" and 
create a birthday card to link up there too!

Have fun and let the celebration begin!!!
