Seize the Birthday #178: Off the Edge

Hi Friends!  Happy November and welcome to another fun challenge from Seize the Birthday!  I'm so happy to be staying at the party this month as the Surprise Party Guest.  

Anytime is 'Anything Goes' as long as it's a birthday theme. But, if you're a toppings kind of person (like me) you can add a little extra.  This time around the topping is 'Off the Edge.'


My mind kept going with stamping and die cutting off the edge, so this is what I came up with:


I white heat embossed the sentiment (MFT Spotlight Sentiments) and the stars (MFT Stars Above) on a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Classic Crest Sand cardstock.  Then I partial die cut the top star with the coordinating die so it was 'off the edge.'  After some random coloring with a Gold Metallic Prismacolor pencil, I layered the piece onto a Neenah Solar White card base.  Now I'm wishing I would have popped it up for some dimension, but oh well...it's a bit easier to mail!

We hope you'll play along and can't wait to see what you come up with.  Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs,
Annie
