For my project today, I have created a birthday card for my son to give to a little girl in his Preschool class, who is having a birthday party today!

For the shape of my card, I used an image from the Paper Trimmings cartridge cut at 6". I welded two of the background images together to create the card, then added the full layered image over top.

The bunny with the balloon and the "It's Your Birthday" images are from Just a Note, one of the cartridges that came built into my Anniversary edition Expression 2 machine. The bunny was cut at 3.5" and the sentiment at 1.75".

Supplies used:

Patterned Paper - We R Memory Keepers - Funfetti

Cardstock - American Crafts, Bazzill, CTMH

Glossy Accents

Stickles - Icicle, Cotton Candy, Orange Peel

Baker's Twine - The Twinery

Ink - CTMH - Hollyhock, Black

Hope you like it!
