This week, our challenge is Sentiment as Focal Image. I used the Mama Elephant Big Happy Birthday die to create my sentiment focal point. To add interest to my card, I sponged and blended a background to contrast with the white die cut, as well as sprinkled a scattering of festive mini penguins around the sentiment.
I hope you will play along with us at Seize the Birthday this week. Remember, 'Sentiment as Focal Image' is an optional topping, and you are always welcome to play along with any birthday card you make.
I look forward to seeing what you create.
Thanks for Visiting
