Die-Cuts or Punches

Welcome to another challenge here at Seize the Birthday! Before I get to all the fabulous inspiration from the design team. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome our next Surprise Party Guest for the next three months. Marianne from Marianne's Cards 'n Stuff will be finishing out 2018 with us as we will be taking the month of December off. I know what you are thinking..., the Holidays are lurking around the corner already! It's really hard to believe, isn't it?

Here is a bit about her!

Hello everyone! I'm Marianne and I'm super thrilled and honoured to be guesting here at Seize the Birthday for the next three months. I'm a Dutch native living in Crete, Greece, with my Dutch husband and our three cats and one dog. I've been creating in some way ever since I can remember. I 'embroidered' my first cat while in kindergarten, but quickly moved on to knitting and crocheting. Some 10 years ago, I discovered cardmaking and challenge blogs, and this wonderful crafting community, and never looked back.

Our "Toppings" option this time is...

"Die-Cuts or Punches"

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!
