I punched my edges with the Martha Stewart Scalloped Border punch, and my ribbon is from Michael's. My sentiment is a Dollar Store stamp and I stamped it with Marvy black ink and finished the card off with green rhinestones.

To start the celebration I colored this adorable image called Rupert's Party.  I colored with Copic markers and my designer paper is from the Citrus stack by Die Cuts With a View.  My sketch is from the Midnight Madness Sketch  Challenge #59.  I finished the card off with swirly rhinestones.
