Zany Zebras Birthday

Hello and welcome back! Here's today's card:

 This design was inspired by the safari animals challenge at Cupcake Inspirations and the sketch challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.

In my collection, I didn't really have many options for safari animals, especially those that would be suitable for a little boy's birthday. Our neighbor's son is turning 3 next week, so this card is for him. There are lots of layers, but it's a pretty simple card.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!

Hello and welcome back! As I promised yesterday, here is the card for my grand nephew's first birthday:

I wanted to make a card to coordinate with the framed art I posted yesterday, so I've used the same stamp set and DSP.

Card of the Day - Zany Zebras

Hello and welcome back! Today's card is for an old friend's granddaughter. She is celebrating her first birthday but in this time of pandemic, her parents are unable to have a big celebration. My friend asked if I would make a card for her, and of course I said yes! Here's the card:

I thought this stamp set was so cute in the catalog and even though I don't have many opportunities to make cards for kids, I decided that I needed it anyway! The zebra is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and then highlighted with a Flirty Flamingo watercolor pencil. I added the fussy cut party hat colored with a Granny Apple Green watercolor pencil.

This design was inspired by the sketch challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches.

I'll be putting this card in the mail tomorrow so it should arrive in time. I hope Carly and her family are able to have a fun celebration!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
