Happy Birthday Wild Thing!! You're how old??

I just LOVE humorous birthday cards.
That makes me wonder how I missed these 
chimps before??  Once I stumbled onto them
I HAD to have them.  They're called
Laughing Chimps and I think they're
perfect paired with two Art Impressions verses...
How Old? and Wild Thing.  I also love that you could
use this image for a child or an adult; man or woman.
We all know it's a little tougher to find great masculine images.
These guys are just perfect for any guy in your life who likes
to chuckle!

 The fun jungle leaves are made with a Sizzix yellow die.
I made the bananas by using an oval punch and punching
near the edge of the paper so only a sliver of oval punched.
The oval mattes were made with a Spellbinders die and an 
oval punch.


 Here's the inside.

My Shabby Valentine

Hi everyone.
This was supposed to be my card for the cards
for children challenge but the wrong card accidentally 
was uploaded so I thought I'd share it now.


 Aren't they the cutest things!
Just perfect for my 5 and 7 year old nieces.

 
The heart border is from Memory Box and the leaves
are made with a punch.

The stamp I used is called Valentot Love.
