Chalk Board Easel with a Birthday Twist

How about this for a super cute, and honestly, a super quick birthday card.  Today’s card is for one of my work friends, Larry.  He enjoys all the cards I make but I think he might like this one the best.  Here’s my card.

I used Sahara Sand as the card base stamped with Baked Brown Sugar using the Hardwood background stamp.  I cut out the ‘legs’ using my Deco Label framelits, the next to the largest size was perfect for the easel look I was going for.

Chalk board paper plays the key role here with Citrus Chalk ink stamped on it.  The image is from Balloon Bash.  I stamped it again on Whisper White with Blackberry Bliss and snipped out the banner. I thought I was done at that point but in looking at it felt it needed ‘more’ so I used several designs from the Moonlight paper stack to create an ittty bitty banner with my itty bitty banner punch.

Don’t forget the inside.  I stamped the inside with Blackberry Bliss and the candles from Balloon Bash stamp set.
