Birthday Theme!
This week, our theme is birthdays! I used the Biggest Wish and Penguin Place stamp sets for you today. Isn’t the pengiun image a riot? He just makes me smile and I hope he makes you smile as well!
I love the colors that I used on this card. Happy, Happy, Happy colors!
I positioned my penguin so that he’s standing on the word birthday and holding some pretty balloons:
