Look out world!

Ok, seriously, this might be my most favoritest card ever!!!  It came out soooo cute and exactly as I had envisioned it (which rarely ever happens!).   My three girlies and I are going to a birthday party (of sorts--we're going to go jumping at a giant indoor trampoline park!  Fun!!) for a 9-year-old boy.  So, of course, I needed a birthday card perfect for a great little guy.  And here it is:

 Ready for the first surprise?  The top blue panel lifts up to reveal . . .

And surprise #2: it's also an easel card.  

In this last picture, you can see the inside a bit better.  Super duper cute, if you ask me!
