Seize the Birthday #296 Masculine

 Hello Crafters,

 It is Thanksgiving Day and we at Seize the Birthday want to wish you a wonderful day. We have so much to be thankful for this year.  It is also our last challenge for 2024.  I am the host for this challenge, and I chose a theme that we all need, but it may be the biggest challenge for most. I know that it is for me. It's Barbara and I have decided to choose Masculine as the topping for this last challenge of 2024.

Before we get to the cards below, I want to thank Colleen for being a Fabulous DT member the past 10 years!  Today is her final post with us and we wish her well as she frees up more time to spend with her family.  I also need to thank Fran Wing for being such a wonderful Surprise Party Guest the past two months we have enjoyed having you in our line up.!  Today we have Claire joining us as she was the overall winner of our previous challenge. Welcome, Claire! 

 Now, let's see what you can do with this Topping.  I personally, made two ideas for you, please check out the inspiration from the team and guests below.  

  
Our "Topping" option this time is...




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 #295-Focal One

Hello Crafters, Ashwini here, hosting this challenge. Almost nearing the end of the year which also means nearly the end of challenges for this year. We will have one more after this one. Many of you might be busy making cards for Christmas, but how about taking a break with something you can probably make quickly?
    
Our "Topping" option this time is...




What this means is, in your card, for the focal image, use only one stamp and stamp it only once. No more stamping is allowed on the focal image. However, you are free to color it and free to do anything else with the rest of the card.
 Also, you can use a coordinating die on your stamped piece (as it will result in a single die cut.)

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!
