Birthday Moose

I got new products from Lawn Fawn and decided to use some for my nephew's birthday card.  I was inspired by a card made by Mindy Eggen on the Lawn Fawn website.

Except for the Woodgrain Texture background by Hero Arts, all the stamps, die cuts and stencils are from Lawn Fawn:  "Forest Backdrop" cuts the opening, and has the trees as well as the mushrooms; the moose are from "Dad + Me;" the sentiment is "Giant Happy Birthday to You;" and the background hills are from the "Mountain Stencil" and the "Ocean Wave Stencils."  I used Copics on the moose, trees and mushrooms.  The background is blended with Distress Oxide inks: Pumice Stone, Milled Lavender, Dusty Concord, Broken China and Tumbled Glass.

Olympic Superstar

I made a card for some mother/daughter friends.  Their great grandson/grandson just won a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics, so I made a card in his honor.  He represented Australia which is why I chose his team colors along with gold glitter for his name.

The frame die is "Superstar Photo Card Frame" by My Favorite Things.  I used the "Skinny Upper Alpha" dies from The Stamp Market for his name.
