Seize the Birthday - Stripes

 Hello friends.  There is a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Linda has chosen "Stripes" as our topping option this time.

 

For my card I used MFT Bold Blooms for the flower & leaves.  I die cut the flowers, layered them and added a gem from Queen & Co. to the center.  The leaves are cut from SU Pear Pizzazz.  The striped paper is an old one from my stash by American Crafts.  The swirly design was the bottom strip on the paper and I almost threw it away, but thought it would make a great design element on my card, so I glued it below the flower.  The sentiment from The Greetery Balloon Bouquet is stamped on an oval die cut and mounted with foam tape.

There is lots of inspiration from the team and our Party Guests over at Seize the Birthday.  Hope to see you in our gallery.

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

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
