My little grand-nephew is turning one! Hard to believe that Miles is already reaching that special birthday, but here it is.
And he's having a "wilderness" party - featuring lions and tigers and bears, oh my! His little friends have been invited to a near-by park, and they will play on the playground, try to bash a piñata (I'm certain that Miles' two older brothers will be doing the dirty work) and eat cupcakes.
So I pulled out some oldie but goody stamps to create my version of a "wilderness" card:
These critters aren't at all scary, and I think they are adorable!
Fluffiest Friends has a collection of furry friends, and I chose the bear, the chipmunk (?) and the bunny to join the little bluebird in a tree.
After stamping, coloring and die-cutting them out, I played with layouts until I liked what I had. I started with a piece of Early Espresso and embossed it with the Timber embossing folder. Then I cut a few holes (the "hive" shape for the bear and a circle for the bunny) and layered the piece over some Pecan Pie.
I used the coordinating Fluffiest Friends dies to create the tree branch for the bird, the bee hive, the grass and the leaves, and then put it all together.
And note the Tiny Bee Trinkets buzzing around the beehive! Too cute!
And inside:
Ready for a celebration! Birthday Celebration dies are perfect, along with the Mini Alphabet dies.
Happy Birthday, Miles! I hope you have a "wild" birthday!
