Happy June 1 to everyone!
This month at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies we are sponsored by Sparkle N Sprinkle, where quality digital products are available in several styles and colors!
Until the 28th of June, you may share your critter creations with us, being sure that your animals are the featured element of the project! There will be a product winner and design team picks, as well.
My card features Sparkle N Sprinkle's Abby's and Walter's Birthday. The darling set has 2 colored versions - one with the background, and one without. I colored this image with Copic Markers, and it is the same colored image available with the digital set, in addition to the black and white version.
The frame was made with Tonic Twisting Verenda Layering Die Set 1113E which contains 11 dies to be used in an assortment of ways. With Nuvo Glue Pen Large I adhered sparkly Starfire Ultrafine glitter to the frame. The Glue Pen is quick drying, even here in humid Florida. Then the glittered frame was adhered with 1/4" Tear-ific Tape to a matching die cut piece of fun foam for added dimension.
The balloons were die cut from a piece of scrap paper that had been heat set with Mediterranean Star Embossing Powder. Fantastic glitter in this EP. The balloon in the back was coated with more Nuvo Glue Pen and dredged with Starfire Ultrafine Glitter to lighten the color a bit, but keep it monochromatic in appearance. The balloon tails are glittery, too, because a black Copic Marker colored over the embossing powder.
A fun card to make!
And now it is your turn to play at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies. Looking forward to seeing your fantastic designs!

Happy furth-day, awwww! Our Wally is having a furth-day this month. 9 years old, but still a puppy. Love how you colored this with a bit of pointillism and gentle shading around it. Wonder if I should get dressed up for Wally's furth-day this year? Your card is beautifully dressed in glitter and pretty paper befitting a furth-day celebration. Thanks for the smiles this morning, Donna!
Oh I do love a good furbaby birthday card and this is just the sweetest! I love all of the sparkly and those glittery balloons. That sweet girl and the birthday pup are too, too cute! They remind me of 2 of my favorites! Well done!
All fur babies should have their birthdays celebrated, Donna, and I adore this image! Great sparkle on the balloons and the image frame. That English Lace background is incredible!

so adorable, who doesn't like sparkle on their birthday. I love how you did her hair and neat fur textured look on the dog. Love how you framed it and the sentiment worked just perfect inside at the top, pretty eyelet lace looking background, so neat!
Hope you are doing well and have a great weekend!
Adorable card - the little girl is so cute. And I love her expressions and the shiny balloons. Sparkly and fun.
Love,
Monica
