One of my friend’s birthdays is this Thursday. So I decided to make three birthday cards: one for Amitis, one for my dwindling birthday card stash, and one for my Operation Write Home stash that is probably just about ready to mail out. I decided to use this cute little mouse image that I had picked up at the Paper Craft Planet. I made these cards to meet two challenges. First up is a Fab ‘n’ Funky Challenge #39 to do what’eva and it is sponsered by Meljen’s Designs, the designer of the image I used. The second challenge is a sketch, Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #76. Initially, I wasn’t sure about making a square card, since I prefer the A2 size, but it worked great with my image since I had printed it a tad on the small side.
