40th

 

Today I'm participating in Lawnscaping's 100th Challenge with a birthday card for my cousin, Christa, who will be turning 40 at the end of February. I used LOTS of super cute and happy Lawn Fawn goodies on this one! I hope it makes her smile!

The little birdies and balloons are from the Hello Sunshine stamp set, and as it turns out the numbers and letters from Sally's ABCs fit quite nicely inside them. I like how the addition of the "40th" adds a personal touch to the card. And since it's not a celebration without some sparkle, I added some shimmer to the balloons with a clear Wink Of Stella pen.

Here's a look at the inside:

I used Sally's ABCs to stamp out the sentiment and then added a heart die-cut from the same patterned paper that appears on the front of the card to tie it all together.

Thanks for stopping!
