High Hopes Challenge #14 Hoppy Birthday!


High Hopes challenge was to create a card for a DUDE! Well, I needed a birthday card for a 15 year old boy.....so here it is!


I used an old blue jean pocket from the rag bag....attached to a piece of tie dyed paper from DCWV Rockstar stack. I had the chipboard "Celebrate" and the star in the closet (Big Lots finds) and the sentiment "Hoppy Birthday" is computer generated, inked, and cut. I stamped the High Hopes Franklin Froggy, scanned the image to enlarge it, and then watercolored it. Attached a button and put him in the pocket. Trimmed the card with paper ribbon and embellished with sequin stars. A little bling, a little cutsie, but NO flowers!
