Happy 90th - Seize The Birthday Tag Challenge

Hey, you know what day it is?  It's time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday!  We have a Toppings Option of using a tag or tags on your card.  As always the Topping is optional.  Anything goes...as long as it's a birthday card!

Of course, I chose to use tags since I have some fun tag dies in my stash!

I made this card for a very sweet woman who rides with me to church every Sunday.  Yes...she'll soon be celebrating her 90th birthday!  She is SO sweet; such a joy to be around.  :)

Thank you for stopping by to take a look!  Don't forget to click over to Seize The Birthday and see what my team mates have created for your inspiration!  I hope you'll play along, too. :)

Happy 90th Birthday!

Hi!  I'm back for my second post today.  You'd think, with all the time I spent at my craft table this weekend...that I made a lot of cards, huh?  Nope.  My excuse is, um.  Quality over quantity.

Yes.  That's my story.  Ha :)

I made this card for an Aunt who will soon turn 90 years old.  And she sure doesn't look, or act, like she's almost 90.  In fact, 5 years ago we had a family picnic and my Aunt played bags for the first time.  Oh my.  She was awesome!  She beat nearly everyone there.  What fun :)

I'm playing along in 2 challenges with this special birthday card.

My card ~

It's been a while since I created using a bit of shabby chic, so this was a lot of fun.  I used some vintage crochet trim from my estate auction stash.  I used several dies and a bit of machine stitching.  Just a fun card to create.  I hope that my Aunt likes it as much as I do.

Thanks so much for spending a little time at my blog!
