Such a fun theme! My birthday is tomorrow, Oct. 6! Love the card examples, especially Maria’s Lily of the Valley card. Every Spring, the tree line in my yard is filled with them.
This is such a fun theme! Great inspiration from the team. Looking forward to joining in.
What a fun idea for a challenge – I hope I get a chance to play along. Loved seeing how each of the ladies were inspired. Fabulous cards.

What a fun theme! I hope I can find time to play along!!
What fun and inspiring cards. Love them all.
What a pretty variety of cards! Thanks for sharing all the inspiration.
Really like all the ideas but the red December card really caught my eye…not my birthday month though. None from October.
What a fun post! Great inspiration!
Great cards!!
What a fun challenge! Loved all the cards representing the birthday months. My birthday is April. I’ll have to give it some thought.
Love all the cards. The theme of this challenge is very unique and different. I am a Taurean born in May. My personal opinion on this theme is that, even though each of us are unque and different (depends on month and sunsign) there is one thing that is common among all (submitted enteries, comments, DT) that is we are all crafters. Thank you for giving us an awesome theme to play along.
Nice twist on a birthday challenge. Hope to join the fun. Hugz
Really great inspiration. I’ll have to try one for my birthday month of March.
I’m a Gemini and I can’t wait to see what the participants will make. Your DT team made a great set. Thanks for the opportunity to win. Love, Marjorie
