Splatter and a New Feature!

Welcome to another great challenge here at Seize the Birthday!

The team and I are pleased to announce that we are starting a new feature here at STB.  Every month we will have one Surprise Party Guest joining the team for that month.  The Design team and I felt it was time to recognize those of you who play along with us week after week.  After all, where would we be without our participants?  How do you get selected as a Surprise Party Guest? Well, just keep doing what you're doing and continue to play along, and hopefully soon you will be recognized too!

Please Join Us in Welcoming Our Inaugural 

Surprise Party Guest

Anita in France

My Papercraft World

Here is a little bit about Anita!

Hello ... bonjour ... I’m Anita in France ... and I’m blessed to live in beautiful south west France.  I’ve crafted in one way or another since I can remember and got seriously into card making about 3 years ago, when I started my blog.  My style is mainly clean and simple  … sometimes quirky, sometimes graphic, occasionally whimsical … and at times, there’s a technique or two thrown in for good measure!    I’m excited, delighted and honoured to have been invited to be the inaugural Surprise Party Guest at Seize The Birthday this month … do hope you’ll play along with us … I’m looking forward to seeing what you create over the next few weeks!
    

Welcome Anita!  
We are thrilled you are here and 
now onto our challenge!

Our "Toppings" option this time is...

" Splatter"

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

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

The choice is yours!

Winners!

Thanks everyone for all of your wonderful creations over the past couple weeks!  
It was exceptionally difficult to choose our winners this time!  I seriously took
notes as I hopped around the gallery and compiled a list of over 20+ cards
 and or projects I was swooning over.  So I had to elicit some help!

Anyhoo... it's time for our Winners!

Congratulations!
