Happy Happy Birthday

I always seem to have a hard time making little boy's birthday cards and I don't have any in my stash of cards as a just in case.  I created this card with that in mind.


For the background I used the Background Basics: Retro set stamped in fresh snow and pure poppy ink onto spring rain cardstock.  I rounded the corners and attached it to a white card base.



I used a white gel pen to fill in the center of the pure poppy image of the background.  The focal image is from Fillable Frames 1 collection which includes a die and coordinating stamp set.  The border image is stamped in spring rain and the sentiment in pure poppy.  I attached it with some foam pop dots on top of  some pure poppy saddle stitched ribbon.

Stay tuned when tomorrow I will share another project with you.  Have a wonderful Monday!

Hugs
Lisa
