Seize the Birthday - Cards for Kids

JoAnn has picked out topping for this challenge, you will have fun with this one. 


I usually need adult birthday cards but now there are younger children that I make and send cards too.   This one is for my grand niece.  She is the oldest of my sister's grandkids.  Since my sister is gone, I have stepped in, to kind of take her place. I think that kids love interactive cards and that is what I made here.  I had the help of a sweet crafter friend who kindly sent me the die cuts to make this card. The die cut is Elizabeth Craft Design. The balloons are Simon Says Balloon Bouquet.  
Thank you, Kathy, you are more helpful to me than you know. 

I just had to decorate the sides of this box with colorful birthday colors. Lots of Balloons and sentiments.




This is how it looks closed to put into an envelope.
