Last minute birthday cards don’t have to be “generic”—they can still be funny and relatable, UKWIM? Sausage dog got a little too much party goin’ on . . . (chortle)

All the images were stamped with coordinating (meaning they “look good together”, not matchy matchy) ink hues on pretty colors of card stock—I don’t always have the time, nor the desire, to meticulously color things. I had scraps of pretty colors of card stock just sitting in my bins, so it made sense to use them up this way—saved me time, reduced waste. What more can you ask for?

Oh yeah, you do have to add a dash of humor. (wink)

I did borrow from a variety of sets* to pull this off the way I wanted, but um, soooooo very worth it! (cheeky grin) Also raided my stash of pom poms and wiggly eyes for just the right embellishment. And, helloooOOOooooOO—Glossy Accents on the wine and bottle for the win! (monkey clapping)

It’s Wednesday. Just in case you’re losing track of your days in isolation.

Stay cozy at home and stay healthy! Please.
