Hello Friends and Happy Wednesday! Today begins a new challenge month at The Paper Funday Challenge! In addition to that, it's our 60th challenge - The Paper Funday Challenge turns 5 years old this month and the team is partying..but more on that a bit later.
The challenge theme is Always Anything Goes with an Optional Twist. The Option this month is Snowman and/or Birds. I chose to go with the Twist and used the Stampendous Cling Fox Friend Stamp Set for my project. This set is an oldie but goodie, from 2015 and still going strong, truly a timeless image and still stamps beautifully.
I've kept the design simple, only using layering mats, one of which is glitter card. I've colored the image using Prismacolor Pencils and the sentiment is from a Cardz TV stamp set.
As previously mentioned, it's The Paper Funday's 5th Birthday and the team is hosting an additional challenge this month. The theme of this special challenge is Birthday and/or Anniversary. There are 5 prizes to be won, and will be awarded to 5 randomly drawn winners from the entries, so you'll want to link up for your chance to win. You are allowed to play along in BOTH challenges at The Paper Funday this month - Yahoo!
Using the Birthday Wishing stamp and coordinating die sets from Colorado Craft Company, featuring adorable images from Anita Jeram, I've created a Birthday Card to mark this 5th Birthday milestone.
I've also kept this design fairly simple, allowing these adorable little critters to take center stage, look at that sweet hamster jumping for joy at the thought of a Party.
Please join us at The Paper Funday Challenge this month, there are so many prizes up for grabs and it's a huge "Thanks" to everyone who support our challenge. You can find the Birthday Bash Challenge HERE.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!

What a fun card! This little trio could not look happier! Such a great idea to include a bright colourful strip. It obviously adds to the happy feel, and it contrasts well with the creatures' neutral colours. Thanks for sharing this with us at The Paper Shelter!
