Exciting News and a New Challenge!

Before I get to the next challenge for STB 
I have a very exciting announcement!  

I am so pleased to be Welcoming the talented Anni to our Seize the Birthday Team!
I know, I could hardly believe it myself when she said YES!
She has been an active participant/ winner here at STB so I thought
why not ask her to join us, so I did! 
  It's been so hard to keep this secret under wraps for the past month.
 She will be joining us for our first challenge in March!

Now let's learn a little bit more about her, shall we?

WELCOME ANNI!

Anni

Hello, I am Anni and I’m from Germany. For 15 years now I´ve lived in the beautiful city of Berlin and I am married. I work as a math-teacher at a vocational college; to perform handicraft work is a perfect compensation for that. I have been stamping since 2008, I love clean and simple cards, and yet eventually my cards often turn out to be somewhat more complex. I love the soothing of paper piecing and resist techniques. 

Now please won't you stop on by Anni's blog and help us
 welcome her to the Seize the Birthday Design Team!

Now onto our Challenge for the next two weeks!

Our "Toppings" option this time is...

"MASCULINE"

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!


If your not a toppings kinda person, well.....you can just

stick with our usual "Anything Goes"Birthday!


The choice is yours!




The Design Team
