Birthday card with party animals for July MFT & Friends

Hi there! The MFT July Release Countdown is finally over and I’m popping in today to share a Birthday card with a pair of fun party animals for this month’s MFT & Friends feature.

I didn’t get to use many of the wonderful new products yet and I was dying to create something with the BB Picture Perfect Party Animals stamp set.

After stamping the gorilla and giraffe with Extreme Black Hybrid Ink on a piece of Copic friendly cardstock, I colored them with the following markers; E55, E53, E51, E37, BG18, BG13, BG23, Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11, YR68, YR65, YR61, G43, G40, B01, B00 and B000.

Next, I diecut a couple of polaroid frames with the Polaroid Shaker Die-namics out of Smooth White Cardstock and adhered them to the trimmed colored images.

I partly stamped one of the sentiments from the same set on the polaroid with the gorilla and the rest of it on the polaroid with the giraffe, to form the phrase: “I’m sorry I forgot your Birthday”.

Next I adhered them to an 8 3/4″ x 5 5/8″ (22,2cm x 14,3cm) cardbase covered with a piece of patterned paper from the Party Plaid Paper Pad. As a last touch I added a couple of matching enamel dots, which are my absolute favorite embellishment, and that’s it.
