Sometimes its just fun to be silly and this card really fits the bill.  I first stamped a little chick for the background  and then stamped and cut out the big chicken with a balloon around her feet. I colored the chicken with alcohol markers and die cut the Happy Birthday out three times and stacked them on top of each other.  For the inside I stamped lets celebrate you and a chicken eating a cupcake.

Now doesn’t this card just bring a smile to your face.

I thought my son would get a chuckle out of his birthday card this year.  He has been keeping his distance from us to protect us from the virus.  He caught the virus in the beginning of all of this horror and has kept up with his distancing ever since.  But, as we all know, HOPE is on the way with the vaccines that are coming out.

For this card I used my cricut machine to do most of the work.  It is a happy face behind a mask with a party hat. I cut a yellow circle for the face and some eyes and a nose in black cardstock.  I had my cricut do the printing of the Happy Birthday words with black ink.  I then added a party hat to the front and on the inside of the card to finish it off.

I made this card for my older sister this year.  She loves flowers and I thought this was most appropriate for her.  The card opens from the middle and I added a sentiment on the inside of “Have a great birthday.”  I then stamped a slice of cake in the corner.
