Mojo Happy Birthday Papa!

Hello! It's time for a new Mojo Monday sketch (#176).. this week the sketch is super flexible.. round or square! Today is my Dad's birthday (Happy Birthday, Dad!), and this is the card we sent to him from Sabrina!


I chose a couple of bright and fun patterns from the Echo Park - Little Boy collection. On the green polka dot paper, I clear embossed stars all over from Verve's Polka Stars. I stamped "Happy Birthday" (from Happy Thoughts) and cut it out using Spellbinders Star Nestabilities. I added some stitching and star rhinestones from Pizzazz Aplenty, then I popped it onto my main panel. I thought it would be fun to add buttons all along the wavy part separating the two patterned papers. I tied some Divine Twine through each button. "PAPA" was spelled using stickers from the same Echo Park collection.

Here's this week's fabulous sketch:
