Birthday Flyby

Happy Friday!!!  It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog.  This week, the challenge is: Something with Wings

Here is my card for your inspiration:

I have made several of these never ending cards using this tutorial.  They look really complicated but really the hardest part is deciding how to decorate them--you have to do 4 cards in place of one!  This card is for my nephew who, you guessed it, just turned 9.  I wanted to use some bright, happy colors, to match his level of energy!  I used my favorite dragon stamp set and decided to stamp them on patterned paper instead of coloring them.  But after having to fussy cut out around all those little spikes and claws, I don't think I actually saved any time.  But I think they turned out super cute and fun!

I got to use up a lot of fun patterned scraps on this one.  For a little more fun, I die cut some bright yellow stars to use as embellishments.

On the last side, I left a blank square so I could write a message.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created.
