I am super excited to be here today and also for the next three challenges as the Surprise Party Guest at Seize the Birthday! I am so pleased and honored to have been invited!!! Today's Challenge #253 is Anything Goes Birthday as usual with the optional topping of "Winged Things". You can choose to incorporate the topping or not, your card just has to have a birthday theme. I chose to use the topping for my card.
I so love the Hero Arts Dragonfly Fancy Die. I love the size of it and the detail in it, so I made it the winged star of my creation. I created a panel of strips in shades of purple, including a couple cut from purple glitter card stock. I added a white heat embossed sentiment strip and my card was complete.
Please head on over to the Seize The Birthday Challenge Blog and see what the Design Team and Surprise Party Guest Elizabeth Stewart of Paper Sweetness (Overall winner to Challenge #252) have created for your inspiration. Come play with us and build up the birthday card stash!

I don't blame you for loving that Hero Arts Dragonfly Fancy Die - it is fancy and very pretty. You did a great got layering the strips of purple papers. The dragonfly looks great perched on them. So glad you have you as our party guest at STB.
You've made me rethink using purple, Stephanie! Wonderful card!

Stephanie, thanks and congrats on being our Surprise guest at STB. Your card is beautiful, with your white dragonfly on the strips of purple cardstock, one of my favorite colors.
