Birthday Boy Ian

Yesterday was the Club Anayaversary Blog Hop with The Greeting Farm and Club Anya to celebrate their first year. During the celebration they gave away this adorable digi image of Birthday Boy Ian . If you would like him, he is vailable for purchase at The Greeting Farm. One of the challenges they had was to use this image and post your creation by 7:45 pm, so of course I had to play along.

This is the first card I created with this cutie:

And now for my favorite card of the two ~ I took the above image and changed it into this:
When I saw this image, I knew I wanted to make a card with Ian coming out of the present, and being a digital image, it was really easy to do. I kept the layout pretty simple since the paper is quite busy and I wanted the image to be the main focus.

Here is a peek at the dimension added:
