Jennifer's Birthday Card

Well, I finished up Jennifer's 5th birthday card.  Ever since she was born on Halloween, her Mom has her birthday picture taken with the number of pumpkins that she is old.  I don't know what she will do when she reaches 21!!  So I decided to make he card with 5 pumpkins on it.  I used thick Very Vanilla CS for my base card and my layer of Old Olive was embossed with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder.


I used the # of Years die to cut out my #5 in orange glimmer paper and mounted it on some cardboard so it would stand out better and popped it up.  My sentiment was also from the # of Years stamp set.  I used the Patterned Pumpkins Thinlets Dies to cut out some pumpkins from last year's Halloween DSP.  For my inside, I used the Party Pop up die for my birthday sentiment.


I cut my CS 1/2 smaller and colored in my greeting.  In the Ready to Pop stamp set they had this cute stamp that reminded me of a vine which I stamped on each side in Old Olive.  Then I fussy cut some small pumpkins from the DSP.  I really liked how it turned out.


Since I'm not mailing the card, I put some extra pumpkins on the envelope.  Now all I have to do is wrap up her presents and get to NJ tomorrow before 10AM.  Grandma's party is in the afternoon, so it will be a busy day tomorrow.  We are definitely going to miss celebrating her birthday on Halloween, but I'm sure she will have lots to tell when they get home from Disney!  Have a great weekend!
