Hope your Birthday is a Blast Rocket card

I made this card for 2 challenges.


My card inspiration today came from a baby blanket my mom made for my son Lucas. The background paper looks just like the pattern on the fabric. I love when I get inspired by the things that are around the house. :)


I cut the rocket and green mat from the Cricut Lite "B is for Boy" cartridge. I added Stickles for bling to the white parts, stars, and flames.


The sentiment was printed from my computer and punched with a Stampin' Up XL word window punch and inked in red.
I hope you enjoy and have a great day. :)
