Meerkat On the Look Out For... An Adorable Birthday Card!

Meerkat On the Look Out For... An Adorable Birthday Card!

Hello everyone! We have been a little quiet lately, been busy getting our garden and yard ready for summer. We have gotten a little crafting in here and there and are finally able to get the pictures posted. Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did! If you like our blog & posts we would love for you to give our blog a follow!

My mom received this adorable Meerkat Stamp Set for a surprise gift from my dad! She couldn't wait to use it! To create the design of the card she was inspired by the Mojo Monday 231 Sketch! She loved how this card turned out and is planning on making another card (...or many) using this adorable stamp set! Keep a look out for more.. Links to all the challenges and the sketch are near the end of this post! Have a great day and we hope you will join in the fun!

Here is the Card:
