Seize the Birthday Challenge

This week the option is stamping only.

I might be pushing it by having water coloring [I think],
 but at least I have no die cutting.  :)

I water colored the squares and pulled out an older than dirt stamp for the gorgeous leaf from Hero Arts. [I adore the detail on this leaf.]  My Happy Birthday is from a retired STAMPlorations stamp set.  

My goal for 2019 is to mail out birthday cards [on time] - this will go into my stash for either male or female. So far, so good.

Your turn.  Come on over to the Seize the Birthday Challenge and play along.  While the topping is optional, being a birthday card is not.  Hope to see you there.


Thanks for stopping by~
