Every day is a great day to create and share a birthday card. Heaven knows, we all need to have them readily on hand and available. So, having a FUN challenge blog like Seize the Birthday is a great way to inspire us all to stay caught up on making those birthday cards. I'm blessed and honored to be continuing on as the July/August Surprise Party Guest at Seize the Birthday Challenge Blog, and it's been great fun creating birthday cards. The optional "topping" for this new challenge is "No Flowers", so I refrained from any flowers to my card.
This FUN card started with cream cardstock that I layered with some pretty patterned papers from the Emma's Shoppe line by Crate Paper. I cut the bigger background pieces using the Dot Dash Nested Rectangle Dies from Brass & Bliss Craft Co. I cut three layers with those fun dies. That created my fun colorful layered card base. My stamped sentiment is found in the Year Round Typewritten Sentiments Stamp Set from Stamp Simply. 
Next, I used scraps of the Emma's Shoppe patterned papers along with the FUN Candles with Layers Dies (also from Brass & Bliss Craft Co.). I cut each candle from a different patterned paper, and I placed them across the bottom of my card. This is very simple, but I just LOVE all those layers of delicious paper. Come on, you know you need to make a few birthday cards. Why not come play along?
I'll be sharing this fun birthday card in the following challenges:
