A VERY Quick, VERY Simple Birthday Card...Alien Sighting!

Wow...it's late!  Almost my bedtime, but I'm trying to get this one in before the day is over.  My 7 yr-old son needed a card for a birthday party for a classmate, so I thought I'd make a card and incorporate a couple of challenges too.  Double...or triple, really...duty!  So I decided to make a shaped card...a spaceship with an alien...fun stuff for that age group.  Lots of sparkle too.  I just LOVE the alien's face...too funny, isn't it?  It's the face from the star in the Nikkity Knack Cat Gang stamp set...I had to get real creative for this one!!  I used an Action Wobble on the alien too...first time using one...now that's fun!  The sentiment inside reads, "Hope your birthday is out of this world!"  Quick and easy, but mission accomplished!  :-)


Recipe
Spaceship from Everyday Paper Dolls
Alien from Paper Doll Dress Up (trimmed to fit)
Green and silver glitter cardstock - DCWV Christmas and Winter Combo Glitter Mat Stack (thanks Michelle @ Scrappin with my Bug!)
Blue cardstock - Recollection gemstone cardstock
Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes folder on alien
Peachy Keen stamp from PK-630 Nikkity Knack Cat Gang (used only the face of the star)
Black and green Bic Mark-ups, black Creative Memories marker and white Gelly Roll pen for stitching/doodling
Action Wobble

I'm entering this card into two challenges:
Cooking With Cricut: Peachy Keen Sponsor - Create a project to celebrate a birthday, using your Cricut and a Peachy Keen stamp, if possible.
My Creative Time with Emma's Throwback Thursday - Make a project using Paper Doll Dress Up or Everyday Paper Dolls and include either dry or heat embossing.

Have a good night!
