Happy Birthday LIttle Man

This card was inspired by several challenges so I will start with there:
  1. My Time to Craft: Gate Fold
  2. 3 Girl Jam: Celebrations
  3. Decerela Creations: Mini Card 
  4. Cut it Up: Labor Day
  5. Craftin' Dessert Divas: Babies
Here's the outside of the card:

The card measures 3" x 3". I could not get the card to stay closed on it's own. I assume it is due to a combination of the gate fold and the bakers twine. So, to help keep the card shut, I made a ribbon belly band from some blue circle ribbon from my stash.

This is what you see when you remove the belly band:
The blue cardstock is scrap. The twine is from trendy twine. I love this image, but unfortunately, I don't know where I got it. The initials are KJ. So, if this is your image or you know who's image this is, please let me know so I can give credit where it is due. The image is was colored with water color pencils and oil pencils.

This is what you see when you open the first "gate:"
The sentiment is computer generated and the edges inked with Ballet Blue ink from Stampin' Up. The kitten stickers are from my stash.

This is the inside of the card:
Again, the sentiment is computer generated and then inked in Ballet Blue ink. The Frogs are prism stickers also from my stash.
I hope you like it!  Have a great weekend!

  4. Love that adorable image! It's funny how babies can bend in half like that! You certainly fit a lot of details on a tiny 3x3.
