Happy Birthday!

Hello! Happy whatever-the-heck day it is! It has been a busy two weeks. My youngest was home sick from Tuesday through Friday last week and by Friday, my son joined her. I *think* we are germ free now but it was an exhausting week for sure :)

Today, I have a cute birthday card to share with you. I used Our Craft Lounge set Slow and Steady for this one: I colored this adorable fella in with Copic markers and paper pieced the balloons with some Bella Blvd paper, which i just love the colors of. (Really fun collection!) I popped the panel up with Helmar Zapdots (and I used some smaller ones to pop up the turtle too!).

I used Helmar Quick-Fix Adhesive Runner on this to adhere the patterned paper to the card base. This stuff STICKS....it is the best tape runner I have used by a wide margin. PROMISE! Great stuff!

Supply list:
Stamps- Slow and Steady (Our Craft Lounge)
Memento tuxedo black ink
Ivory cardstock (Gina K Designs)
Patterned paper- Finally Fall: You're a Hoot, Cute Cuts (Bella Blvd)
mini clothespin (Tree House Studio)
twine (May Arts)
Adhesive: Hemar Quick-Fix Adhesive Runner, Helmar Zapdots

Thanks for stopping by!

    Adorable card, Cammie. So sorry you've had sick ones. That's always stressful. Hope you are back to normal now (whatever that is this time of year!)

    Awwwww!! This is so cute!! I sympathize with the sicko germs. Here, they seem to be sticking just to me, which, I guess, is good. But I'm sick of being sick!! hehe
