One Thing Leads to Another

I started out making this card for my niece.

and ended up making a few more cards..... 

 The Mickey Mouse background for my niece's card was originally part of  a magazine advertisement.  Since Jenny is a big Mickey Mouse fan, I put it aside for her birthday card.

The sentiment is a Rubbernecker stamp and matching die, which I popped using a piece of craft foam also cut with the die. 

Sparkles of various colors finished off the card.

I am entering it in the following challenges:

Crafty Sentiments Challenge - Bright Colors 

Everybody Art Challenge 428 - Birthday

4 Crafty Chicks Challenge #410 - Birthday

Send a Smile 4 Kids Challenge - Anything Goes

To make the eight card grouping, I used every bit of 1 sheet of double sided patterned paper.  Each card features the same Rubberneckers Happy Birthday Sentiment stamp, using both the positive and negatives of the die cut.  They all have one of Tim Holtz's Crazy Birds, complete with party hat, watercolored and fussy cut.

These will go on the pile for Send a Smile 4 Kids.  

I think they will make great teen cards.
