Sydney's Sentiments: Happy Birthday

Hi everyone. Here are a few cards I never got around to posting. My husband has four brothers. Three of them are triplets. They recently had a birthday and so did my husband's father. I couldn't resist using these amazing bird stamps. We have five parrots and like to send things from "the flock". I also couldn't resist using googly eyes on these adorable birds. They were just screaming for it. I LOVE googly eyes!!! I have about a million of them. I colored them using Inktense Blocks. I don't use Inktense as often as I should. They go on just like watercolors but they are much more vibrant.

Here are the insides of the cards. I used Elizabeth Crafts birthday pop-up die.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
