Just popping in with a fun little zebra card to share.
The background paper is from Me and My Big Ideas, cute huh?!
I used my Cricut to create this card.
The little zebra is from Create a Critter and is cut at 2.75 inches. The flower in her hair is part of a K & Company embellishment. Simple googly eyes, and then for her nostrils I added Black Diamond Stickles. For her ear and her mouth I used some Liquid Pearls in Petal Pink.
Emma is cut from Ashylyns Alphabet at 1.15 inches. I covered it in lots of Stickles.
Is is from the same cartridge, using the skinny font at 1 inch - very tiny letters were hard to work with!
The three is from Sweet Treats, I just wanted a super fat 3 and knew there were fat numbers on that cartridge. It's cut at 2.25 inches. I cut it using some paper from the My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky pad. I outlined it with some Stickles. It's layered on a scalloped circle cut with my Nestabilities, but you could easily cut one from a cartridge.
There's my card! I love being able to make personalized ones like this that include a name and an age. Kids cards are the most fun :)
So, the reason I've been MIA this week is that I've been sewing! I am actually attempting to make myself a dress. I go back and forth between being excited about my progress, and wanting to throw the thing out the window. *LOL* Of course I've been doing other things too, but the sewing is the reason I haven't done my usual crafty projects and postings this week. Glad I got to whip this card up today and had something fun to share. Not so sure the dress will be worth sharing.

Amber this card is adorable. I love zebras and rarely see them used on cards, so this is something so new and fresh. You are so lucky to have been sewing. I want to learn so bad, along with crocheting. Maybe someday.
