Hearts Quest Fantasy Challenge #53 & Saturday's Crafty Creations #11 Featuring Gnometastic Birthday Surprise from Polkadoodles

Good morning! Long time no see as well. I have really struggled to find any crafty mojo over the past couple of months, but I made a few cards including this one last weekend and really enjoyed having that crafting enjoyment back. Hopefully I will find some more time and some more mojo to make some more cards in the next few weeks!

Anyway here is my card for the new challenge from Hearts Quest Fantasy, which is our usual Anything Fantasy Goes challenge. I used the cute Birthday Surprise from the Gnometastic collection from Polkadoodles and made this bright card for a male work colleague's recent birthday.
