Hello to you! In midst of all the Christmas turmoil, my colleagues asked me to make a card for our sweet trainee who will leave this week. So this card is a labour of love for a wonderful girl who is happening to celebrate her 18th birthday on Saturday.
I chose to use various Stacey Yacula stamps from My Favorite Things. I wanted the critters to hold this banner and the SY sets perfectly provided images holding their "arms" like I needed them to. Everything is colored with Copics, then fussy-cut. I wrote the text onto the banner that I cut from patterned paper. The background is inked with Distress Oxide Ink. Because this card is unusually big (12x25cm), I created my own envelope using large patterned paper and the Envelope Punch Board.
This card was such fun to make. And especially because I knew who will receive it :)
I'll add this partying gang to the current SSS Wednesday Challenge: Party Time. Thanks for stopping by today!

Love your card. I haven't bought any of the SY critters from MFT, but I have some of her older stamps from a different company. I have been looking at them, trying to figure out which ones I want the most since buying all of them would be expensive right now! But I just got the email with 30% off so I guess there's no time like the present!! You card helped to make up my mind! So So cute!
