Seize the Birthday #289-Cute Critters

Hello Crafters, JoAnn here.  I am the hostess this time and thought it would be a fun challenge to use a Cute Critter or Critters as the "Topping" option on our cards this time.  I hope you like this "Topping" and can't wait to see what you create. 

Before we get to the fantastic cards below I want to welcome our next Surprise Party Guests.  We have Karen Rogers joining us for the next two months.  Welcome, Karen. We are happy to have you!

Here is a bit about her!

Hi there I’m Karen from Hamilton, New Zealand. I’ve been stamping and blogging for approximately 15 years. I’m also known as kareN stampZ on social media which is a play on my name and NZ. In my free time, I love to make cards from CAS to dabbling in mixed media. I really enjoy joining in on challenges as it challenges me and it also helps me find my MOJO when it goes missing plus it means I get to use the pretty stamps I like collecting. I am retired after working in a hospital laboratory for 45 years, so being creative is a big part of my day as I have the time to play more. You can find me at www.karenstampz.blogspot.com and on Instagram as karenstampz.

Next, we also have Darnell joining us today as she was the overall winner from our last challenge using our Topping. Welcome, Darnell!  We are happy to have both these talented ladies designing with us! 

    

Now, let's go and see what everyone has made using my Topping!

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!
