Happy Birthday from a Dapper Bookworm

Hello Everyone! Welcome back!  Today I have a card that was inspired by the amazing Brian King.  You can see Brian's amazing original at https://stampwithbrian.com/2019/06/26/check-you-out-for-the-be-inspired-blog-hop/.  But I did make some changes to make it more "me" such as brighter colours! Isn't that bookworm so cute!?!  I had to stamp and cut out his bowtie (and colour it), but it was worth it! To make this card: 1.  Start with a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Crumb Cake Card base.  Cut a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" Whisper White cardstock and adhere to the card base.  Cut a piece of 3...

I am not going to lie, I did a ton of...
