Birthday Leaves
APR24VSNL - Hit the sack

For my card, I used this digital image from Lee Holland. I just love this panda and had to use it for this challenge. I printed it and colored it with copics then sponged some clouds and die cut a few additional clouds stamping the birthday sentiment on the large cloud. and popping two of the clouds up on dimensionals.

I am hoping I can give this to one of my family members to give to me for my birthday. :)
