Hi there!
I am so excited to tell you about our new feature at Seize the birthday from this week on!
Every month we will ask a faithful participant to join the design team as our
SURPRISE PARTY GUEST!
To kick off this new feature I am so pleased to introduce you to Anita in France ! Anita is no stranger in blogland and is a very talented and such a sweet and supportive fellow card maker!
Welcome Anita!
The topping for the next 2 week is to show us some kind of splatter on your card. As always, you are more than welcome to link any newly created birthday themed card, no need to splatter!
This is my inspiration... 2 cards this time! I guess I got carried away !
Do you have a favorite?
or...
My focal point is a Silhouette cut butterfly , framed by a flower mandala from an online coloring book. With the current adult coloring craze going on, mandalas is such a fun thing to color. There are SO MANY wonderful mandalas available on line, and they make fabulous 'digital stamps' for cards... and they are FREE!!! I selectively colored the mandala with my Promarkers.
I added my own computer generated sentiment and a bit of bling!
Inspiration for my card was provided by a couple of other challenge:
Less is more ~ Jewel colors
Cas-ual fridays ~ Tic-tac-toe ( I picked coloring - spritzing - die cutting )
Virginia's view challenge ~ All things colored.
A very simple sentiment... but I saved it for you as many of you told me you love the white on black sentiments!
Hope to see you play at Seize the birthday!
Thanks for visiting me today!

I really like the both of them but the one that caught my eye the most is the first with the pink vellum butterfly. Both beautifil
It's mega catch up on comments this morning Hannelie and I'm loving this / these beauties. Great use of those opulent jewel colours, stunning designs and CAS perfect. Thanks as always for playing along at Less is More. Sarah x
Hello Hannelie, I'm always nervous about splattering, I've ruined a couple of cards with it, sheeesh!! You did a fabulously beautiful job with this two cards, I can't pick a favorite, the splatter on them is perfect. Did you do it with a spray bottle or an old toothbrush? flicking your fingers?? I sometimes do it with a paint brush but the splatter looks to big, (sigh!)
Thank you for sharing your beautiful cards.
Hugs,
Maria.
Very pretty cards. The first is my favorite. I like the strip with the splatters on it.
Very beautiful.
Both are totally gorgeous but if you totally force a vote I think #1 just snatches it for me, Jo x
I am totally swooning over these cards Hannelie - they are just stunning! I think the first is my favourite. Such a clever and simple way to change the look of the card. Just gorgeous. Thanks for playing along at CAS-ual Fridays!
These cards are really beautiful !!

I LOVE these! Absolutely gorgeous colours, Hannelie, and I love the little clusters. I think the first one has won my heart :)
Thanks for sharing with us.

They're both fabulous, Hannelie ... such wonderfully vibrant splatters ... and gorgeous mandalas! Thanks so much for your sweet words and lovely shout out, my friend! Hugs, Anita :)
Oh, I love your new feature... so much fun and I can't wait to see your Gds. So fun to see how almost the same elements used and the same design makes such a different feel to a card. You're awesome, girl!
Mooi allebei! Gave tegenstelling van de rechte lijn en de sierlijke vlinder en mooie kleuren! Groetjes, Gerrina
Well, These are fantastic Hannelie! Since you asked, I think I like the first one the best. Love the mandalas and the bold sentiment! You continue to amaze me time after time!!!
