I’m lacking in my stash of birthday cards so this weekend I whipped up a few (slimline style by Whimsy Stamps) using the Picture Perfect stamp from My Favorite Things. Read below for more details on how this card was created using these featured products:

Picture Perfect
Slimline Card Builder Die
Slimline Scallop Peekaboo 1 Die

I was inspired by Chrissy’s Gnome project and loved the background she did. I’ve seen the technique before but that one inspired me crack the whip and finally get to it. So for these animals, I did the alcohol drop method to create that background. What I learned? Make sure to let the drop dry in between layers.

These birthday cards are about the same as the other Picture Perfect projects I did but I don’t mind. The layout works out well for these stamps so I’m happy with that. I just wanted to get to coloring so that’s what I worked on. Hope you enjoy!
