I made my SugarPea Designs birthday card with the adorable Merry ChristMoose Stamp set. I LOVE that this set is not just for Christmas but for winter birthdays too! I have a birthday coming up soon and I think it's nice to brighten things up and add a little warmth and sunshine to a winter birthday with bright colours. I used a mix of BoBunny's Candy Cane Lane and BasicGrey Evergreen 6X6 patterned papers. I coloured up this cute moose with my Copics, fussy cut him out and popped him up on the tag cut with the Gift Tag Sugar Cuts. I haven't used vellum since I started scrapbooking almost 13 years ago. Vellum is having a resurgence and so I scoured my stash for some vellum, cut out another gift tag and layered it over the yellow patterned paper gift tag...love the softness it adds.

I stamped out the various snowflakes from the Merry ChristMoose Stamp set and the Sweet Treats - Christmas Stamp set on the pierced circles. I stamped the sentiment from the Merry ChristMoose Stamp set in Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink on Sweet Tooth Heavyweight Card Stock cut with the pierced fishtail flag from the Gift Tag - Sugar Cuts. I embellished with some yellow sequins and tied the tag with yellow AC hemp twine.

I finished off the inside of my card, as always. I stamped the Merry ChristMoose moose again in Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink and embellished with more circles stamped with the snowflakes. I added another tag cut with the Gift Tag Sugar Cuts but I only had a small scrap of the yellow patterned paper left so I used the "cut and re-cut" technique to make the tag a little smaller. I used the Layered Treat Label Sugar Cuts for the sentiment panel and stamped a sentiment from the Have an ICE Day Stamp set

Thanks SO much for hopping by and having a little peek at the birthday card I made for the SPD 1st Birthday Bash Blog Hop with the Merry ChristMoose Stamp set! Please remember to leave a comment HERE and on every blog post along the hop for your chance to win the $100 Gift Certificate.
