I was searching Pinterest for a cute card for a 2 year old great-grandson when I happened upon this cute card that Patty Bennett created.  She So this is the card I am sharing today created using Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.  The greeting and sentiment are from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbird stamp set.

My card base is Parakeet Party card stock.  It is a one piece base as Patty Bennett’s 2-4-6-8 Fun Fold sit atop the base.  The fun fold is a 5-1/4″ x 12″ piece of the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.  It is scored at 2″ 4″ 6″ and 8″.  I stamped music notes in Memento Black ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set.

The 2″ panels are adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to create the two short folds.  You can exact instructions in Patty’s video.  I die cut 4 circle from Parakeet Party card stock using Layering Circle Dies.  I die cut two Basic White circle using a die from the same dies.  I die cut three of the little animals from Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper using one of the dies. These were adhered to the Parakeet Party card stock circles using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I stamped a greeting and sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds stamp set  and adhered the circle to the Parakeet Party circle.  You can see in the photo above how I adhered the circles to the card base.  I just realized I forgot to add any bling.

A piece of Basic White card stock is added to the center of the inside for signing the card.

A piece of the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper is adhered to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
