Seize the Birthday #260-Balloons

Hi All - It's Vicki here today.   

Before we get to my Topping, I would like to take a moment and thank Hillary for being such a stupendous Surprise Party Guest the past two months. We really enjoyed your cards and hope you will come back and visit us in the gallery when you have the time. 

We also have Claire joining us today as our guest as she was our overall winner using our Topping from our previous challenge.  Welcome, Claire! 

 

 For this challenge, it is all about Balloons. So many possibilities!  I'm looking forward to the gallery.

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 #259- Alcohol

Hello peeps!  It's Shirley here with my choice of topping, and I've gone for alcohol.  Now, the obvious choice of alcoholic drinks might spring to mind, and they're great cards to have in your stash, but alternatively, you could use alcohol inks to create stunning backgrounds, focal pieces or die cuts.  Have fun making your choice!

    Our "Topping" option this time is... Alcohol

You could use alcohol inks or alcohol drinks - or both!

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!

A Format Reminder

Hello, Nancy Here! 

I wanted to remind our followers and participants that on the first of this year, we changed our format here at Seize the Birthday to posting the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month.  So if you are wondering why our post didn't go live today that is why.  We will be back with a New Topping on April 13th along with our winner's post from our last challenge, so stay tuned! 

If you are looking for a challenge to join, don't forget our sister challenge-

Color Hues the Color Challenge 

Thank You and Happy crafting!
