Good Grief! It’s Your Birthday!

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here to share my Good Grief! It’s Your Birthday Card using The Great Box Limited Edition Box by Kindred Stamps! It’s my brother’s birthday today. I remember us watching the antics that the Charlie Brown Gang got up to in the cartoons. 

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to create a scene, but to fit all my characters, I went with a fun pop out card.

My inspiration was where they all go on stage and start dancing! I always loved that part! So, I used some wood Designer Series Paper to create the floor to my stage.

Once I coloured with my Copic markers my characters, I built my stage. The card folds out like a book, so you see more characters as it unfolds until you have it fully open.

For most of my card I used The Great Box Limited Edition Box. Don’t you love the doghouse with Snoopy and Woodstock dancing around the sentiment! The Charlie Brown chevron pattern paper was perfect for the backdrop of my card! Almost like curtains to the stage.

  1. Hi, I love this stamp set so much, I am a super fan of Charlie Brown and the whole Peanuts gang. The set is out of stock, do you know if they will bring it back?

  2. I LOVE THIS. I’m a huge Peanuts fan–always have been, since I could read. I always asked for Peanuts paperback books as gifts. I am wearing a Peanuts tshirt right this minute. And we went to Knott’s Berry Farm today (Peanuts characters are their mascots). LOVE THIS. Wish I could get the stamps!

    1. Thank you so much! So glad you love my card! I love peanuts too! I grew up watching them. Find memories! Keep your eyes open. Sometimes they re-release them, especially if there is still a link in their store.
