Hoppy Birthday Sheila!!!

Hey Everyone!
  Tomorrow is Sheila's Birthday - aka She's A Sassy Lady.  She is a wonderful inspiration and is always making the loveliest cards and layouts.  I'm so excited to give her this card.  Actually, it's already in the mail - but I have a feeling it's going to be a bit late!  So I'm giving it to her electronically here a day early so she won't think I forgot!! LOL  I made this card using her fabulous window technique using the Gypsy.  I found a perfect window with this scalloped edge on Mini Monograms.  Although, it had an extra window so I hid that.

 I took shadow letters from Nursery Rhymes and welded them together to spell Hoppy Birthday on the top and bottom of the window.  Finally, I attached the words with the little bunny shadow from Give a Hoot.  The balloon happened to fit right over the O in Hoppy!  I cut this all out and added an extra layer on the front.  The bunny was run upside down in my Xyron and I added some flocking to his belly and body.  Next, I added a bit of smooch on his mouth and gave him little black eyes and a nose.  I topped him off with a little rosy cheek using some chalk. 

I used a string instead of the cricut string for the balloon and popped the balloon over the O.  I also added all the letters to the top of the shadow.  The paper used was all Basic Grey - Cappella.  On the inside I placed a matching stripe and a black piece for a sentiment.  I wrote with my gelly roll pen on the inside!
Hoppy Birthday Sheila!!!
Enjoy!
