A Grouchy Birthday!

My nephew is turning 4 this week and I wanted to make him a special card to send out with his gift!  A haven't used my Sesame Street cart very much so I wanted to use it for his card.  Every 4 year old loves Sesame Street....right?!  Okay, so that really isn't true, my little cupe does not really care for Sesame Street...but my nephew really does!  Okay, anyway, here is the card:


It is a 5 x 7 card (yellow cardstock) with paper from Sizzix that I have had forever.  Oscar is cut from plain cardstock in the appropriate colors.  I used my Gypsy to weld together the letters for happy birthday from the Sesame Street fonts cart.  The ribbon is from the dollar spot at Target.






For the inside of the card I used stamps from a stamp set I had.  I don't usually use stamps because I really don't have the best luck with them but in this case I thought I would try!  I hope he enjoys the card, probably not as much as his gift though!  What kid really enjoys a card?!
