Miss Monday- Sweet Ice Cream with Scratch Off Joke

 

These Miss Monday cards were made for the children for my church. We started sending out Birthday cards during Covid and just kept it going! We were giving a $5 gift card for Yogurtland and so an "ice cream" theme was a must!  

We have around 45 kids that we send the card to but this is just one design I've made and send. I made 10 of these total. 

I used two main colors for the cardbase, Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green.

The fun thing about this one is that the Happy Birthday is on the inside of the card but because of the "Fun Fold" cut you can see it all times. 

I love writing and putting jokes into cards. I usually put them on a post it note, but found it found to glue in the joke and create a "scratch off" spot for the answer. This joke says, "Why does everyone invite ice to the party?" Answer: "Because it is so cool!"  

You can make this card too by following my steps below and shopping from my online Stampin' UP! store.
