What I want you to do is put a Double Frame on your birthday card. You will see many ways to achieve this look below! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Remember, our Topping is ALWAYS optional; if you prefer, you can always make any type of Birthday card or project. You will not be able to be chosen as our winner, but that doesn't mean your card can't be featured on our winners post. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Before we see what the Design team has done with this Topping, I would like to give a warm welcome to our other guest designer, Denise. She won our previous challenge. Denise, we are happy to have you guesting alongside Stacey today!

Before we get into the heart of this fortnight's post, I'd like to publicly thank my team for pulling up my slack these past six months. For those who may not know, we recently relocated from Florida to North Carolina to be closer to our kids and their families. Moving from a home that you've lived in for thirty years is not for the faint of heart and I'm just now at a point where I can slow down a bit and do the things I love. So just a shout-out to Nancy and her entire team for being so patient with me. I've missed all of you.</span></p><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A couple of mentions before we get to fabulous inspiration below.

I started out scrapbooking but stumbled upon cardmaking during one of my husband's deployments. I fell in love with the process of making cards, and scrapbooking slowly took a back seat. My cards will almost always have patterned paper and an image that I colored with my Copic markers. I find coloring so calming and relaxing, at least until one of the markers leaks lol! When I am not papercrafting, you can either find me sewing, quilting, cross-stitching, or spoiling & playing with my 2 adorable grandsons.</span></span></div><div><span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; text-align: start;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: large; text-align: start;">Now on to the business at hand. </span></div><div><span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: medium; text-align: start;">For the next two weeks I'd like to challenge</span></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; text-align: start;">you </span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; text-align: start;">to add </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; text-align: start;">a sentiment strip to your birthday card.
