Happy Little Stampers February CASE Challenge

Happy February friends! I'm here with a card I made for the Happy Little Stampers February CASE challenge.
This month we are case-ing the fabulous, Shona Chambers!
Here is her cute card:


From the moment I saw Shona's fun design, I immediately thought of creating a shaker card. The design really lends itself to that type of card.

I started by creating the word background on Kraft using HLS Bold Birthday Sentiments. There are so many fabulous sentiments, it's a perfect set for creating this type of background. I then die cut the circle from the center and added a piece of acetate for the window. Next I stamped the sweet little elephant and balloon from Birthday Friends and added lots of little stars from the Bold Birthday set. It's hard to see in the photo but I also added some clear Wink Of Stella to the balloon and to the large stars. Once my shaker card was assembled, I added a banner sentiment using the Happy Birthday stamp from Butterfly Birthday and the star from Bold Birthday Sentiments.

I'll be adding this card to the following challenge:
Cupcake Inspiration ~ Banners
Sunday Stamps

Be sure to stop by the Happy Little Stampers blog and check out all the cute cards for inspiration and then join in on the fun!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Blessings~ Birgit
