Birthday Card for My Niece

Hi Crafters! So I have finished all the birthday cards for this week. The last card I had to make was for my niece that is turning one. My niece has a little stuff monkey that she takes everywhere and every time I see her or pictures of her she always has the monkey or is wearing an outfit with a monkey on it. Therefore I had to make her a card with a monkey and I found the monkey on the Create a Critter 2 Cricut Cartridge.

 Here is a picture of her birthday card:

And here is a picture of the inside:

I used pink and purple to girl it up and then added the number one to the monkey's hat and shirt. I also used some stitching to give the card a little more detail.
