Snarky Birthday Wishes

Hello there!
It's Thursday, almost the weekend! 
It's also time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday!

Jules is our host this fortnight. Her topping is Add A Tag!



I had to use a snarky sentiment from a set by Spellbinders.  I remember my grandmother doing just this - keeping a tissue in her sleeve.  If she had short sleeves or no sleeves she'd tuck it in her bra.  LOL  I don't know if you can see it well, but I added an actual tissue piece in the sleeve of the arm on the card. 😄 

The arm die is actually a Grinch arm by Kat Scrappiness. The tag is by Waffle Flower and the patterned papers are by Catherine Pooler Designs. Tissue by Cotsco (LOL). 



Of course if you're not into the Toppings you can still play with us in our Anything Goes Birthday Challenge.  We love having you play either way!





Thank you for visiting my blog and hope you come back soon!

I certainly got a chuckle out of your car Nance. Not only of the arm holding the dainty tag on the card but that sentiment is hilarious I think I have to have that Stamp

Nance I love how you managed to turn that Grinch hand a bit more feminine - and kind! lol
Wait... I STILL do this tissue thing... does that make me old? One can never know when one will be needed - but it can be an issue when the tissue gets stuck in the sleeve in the washing machine - oy!

Oh, this is fabulous! Yes, I remember that practice. I have tissues in my purse, but if I don't have my purse with me I'm out of luck. The sentiment is hilarious! Hmmm... I don't carry a tissue in my sleeve, but I do kind of have Grinch hands. It's fun to be guesting with you for this challenge, Nance!

I do remember that and I know my grandmother always had a tissue handy! These days we need to keep the tissues handy and stay inside as much as possible! Love the red fingernails and the tissue peeking out of the sleeve!

I love how you've added the tissue in the sleeve, and matched it to the sentiment perfectly! I love the how peppy the patterns are as well. It's just a fantastic, fun card! Love it!

This is just perfect, Nance! I am at that age when I don't have a pocket. LOL Using the Grinch arm was perfect! Well done!
