Seize the Birthday #237-Butterflies or Hummingbirds

Hello and welcome to another great challenge here at Seize the Birthday!  Nancy here and I am your hostess this time around.  Before I get to the wonderful inspiration below by the DT, I would like to say a huge thanks and farewell to Deepti.  This is her last challenge with us and we certainly have enjoyed having her onboard these past two months.  

Deepti, your cards were outstanding and we look forward to having you back in the gallery when you have the chance.  Take care! 

    Now onto our "Topping" option that I think you will enjoy!

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

The choice is yours!

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

Seize the Birthday #236- Signs of Spring

Hello and welcome to our next challenge here at Seize the Birthday.  I think our next topping that was selected by Lindsey, is certainly what we all need right about now.   I found this quote that I thought I would also share as a reminder to just hold on. 

"Spring will come and so will happiness. Hold on. Life will get happier." 

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

The choice is yours!

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

Let's go see how the Design team and our guest-Deepti were inspired!
