Candles for Seize the Birthday

 Hello friends.  It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Colleen has chosen the "Topping" option of candles for this challenge.  Of course, the only requirement is that it has to be for a birthday.

 

I bought this digital image (Birthday Cake Mouse) from Whimsy Stamps because I thought it was so cute and it goes perfectly with Colleen's topping choice of candles.  After printing the image, I colored it with Promarkers and die cut it with a Cottage Cutz Double Stitched Square die.  I stamped the sentiment from SU Shaded Summer and die cut it with a Stitched Oval die.  The image and sentiment panels are mounted with foam tape on a tiny pink check pattern paper from my stash, and them to the white card base.

Be sure to check out all the fabulous cards by our party guest and the design team over at Seize the Birthday.  I hope you will join in our fun challenge.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
