Christy’s Special Birthday Card

We are happy to welcome Christy today to share an especially fun birthday card!

Hi friends, Christy here with a card for an epic birthday! The leader of my writers group is turning the big 6-0 this week, so I had to make him a card for everyone to sign. Since he writes fantasy, I thought Lovable Legends would be the perfect set to use. I pulled in the bird, cake, and gift from Party Animal, and the numbers from Quinn’s 123s.

 I started out by coloring my images with Copic markers and stamped the solid trees with Jalapeño and Noble Fir inks, then die cut everything with the matching dies. Then I built my scene with Meadow Borders, Stitched Hillside Borders, and a cloud from Spring Showers. I die cut my focal panel and my Perfectly Plaid Fall patterned paper with both the Large and Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables and popped my focal panel up with foam tape. The outside sentiment was stamped with Jalapeño ink and the inside sentiment with Merman. I think he’s really going to get a kick out of it!

You still have a few more days to link up your projects for our Outstanding Occasions Challenge! Hope to see yours there!

Thanks so much for sharing with us today, Christy!
