Another super card by today's FS, Kathy (laurasbuffy) that I just had to case: Pack of Pandas by laurasbuffy at Splitcoaststampers
I changed her pandas to meerkats, but kept the animals holding a banner and a balloon. Used a deckle edge die for the panels; they are an odd size, not quite matching an A2 card shape. Colored the meerkats and lizard with markers and fussy cut just their forearms so they could hold the banner.
Stamped the black dots on the white panel to keep her fun polka dot BG. Popped the Soft Suede panel up on foam tape. In hindsight, I think it would have looked better if I'd used Soft Suede for the base.

Oh My Goodness! How funny, we cased the same card and used the same stamp set and are gallery neighbors!! What are the odds of that??
I really like what you've done. I love the deckle panels, and how they are holding the banner. Great case!

Oh goodness - what fun little faces on your pack of meerkats - love how they are holding the birthday banner and the cute lizzard holding the one balloon!

So adorable and smile-inducing. Love the deckled edging and your nod to the inspiration card with the dotted layer. And, that lizard is quite the party-goer with his balloon. Wonderful card.
