Happy Thursday morning friends. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday. This week it is "anything goes" as long as it is birthday.
I used the color challenge at Just Us Girls - black & white with your choice of a third color (I chose pink) and the sketch from Viva la Verve, March Week 2.
I used MFT Smooth White and Black Licorice CS, and SU Blushing Bride CS (it matches the DSP better in person). The pink banner is cut with MFT Pierce Fishtail Flags die. The flowers are from Verve Grateful Elegance and the matching larger Plain Jane flower (not available). I inked the petal tips with Blushing Bride ink. The sentiment is from Verve Birthday to You, cut with MFT Pierced Circle die and Spellbinders Small Scallop Oval die. The ribbon is from SU. The DSP is from a really old pack by Making Memories called Sabrina, love the pink & black together (can't believe I haven't used it before now). I have had the pack of paper doilies by The Little Yellow Bicycle for awhile also.
This is my first time using both of these so I am linking to Darnell's NBUS Challenge #4 (never before used schtuff)
Now hop over to Seize the Birthday and check out all the fabulous creations by my teammates. I hope you will play along with us.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
