Seize the Birthday #302-Milestone

Hello Crafters, this is Jenny and I'm so happy to be hosting this challenge.

I recently had to make a card for my mother-in-law who was turning 90. This made me think about my next Milestone Birthday and was shocked to realize it will be my 70th!!! I've still got a few years to go, but I thought I'd start making some cards for friends because time does fly!!!

Before we get to the cards below, joining Leslie, we also have Renate here.  She was the overall winner of our previous challenge. Welcome, Renate! We all are happy to have you with us too!

    

Our "Topping" option this time is...

If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!

The choice is yours!

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

Seize the Birthday #301-Anything that Flies

Hello Crafters,

This is Linda, and I am happy to be your host for today's challenge here at Seize the Birthday. 

I would like to invite you to make a card with anything that flies on it: butterflies, birds, hot air balloons, planes, etc.  We would love you to join us.  There is a lot of inspiration from our Special Guests and Design Team to get you started.

Before we get to the cards below, I want to introduce you to our next Surprise Party Guest. We have Leslie Miller joining us for the next two months.  Welcome Leslie, we're so happy to have you alongside us!

Leslie Miller

Here is a little bit about her! 

    

Hello, Leslie here, and honored to be the Surprise Party Guest at Seize the Birthday for March and April!  I'm writing to you from the big toy box I call my craft room, still one of my favorite places on earth after almost three decades.  Hobbies come and go, but my love of card making never dims.  Outside the craft room I enjoy too many things to mention, but top of the list are my human family and friends, and Golden Retriever, Sophie.  Sophie and The Great Outdoors keep me active and healthy here on the southern Oregon coast.

Along with Leslie, we have GerJanne joining us; she won the previous challenge using the Topping.  Happy to have you both with us! 

Now, let's get to the oodles of inspiration below! 

Our "Topping" option this time is...

If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!

The choice is yours!

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

#300 Winners Post - No Stamping

Greetings fellow cardmakers, it's Jules here.

Thank you to all who played along and a very special thank you to

 all who participated in my No Stamping challenge.

I am overjoyed at the response!

Before I announce my Winners, I'd like to take a moment to remind all of our 

participants that in order to be considered for the winner's circle, we do have 

a few guidelines that must be met.  The most frequent disqualifier is 

our Five Challenge Rule.  It saddens me to have to pass over some lovely cards 

so if this is important to you, please limit the challenges to five per entry.  Thanks!

And now for our Winners!

Renate

I just love all of the little details on this beautiful card.

and

Helen (Anything Goes)

I am always in awe of those who make coloring with pencils look easy.  

Congratulations!

You both managed to "Take the Cake" this week!

We hope you will enjoy your Winner's Badge!

Renate, please contact Nancy at Leppeknancy@gmail.com 

and she will give you all the details about guesting with us.
