Bold Bright Birthday

Hey y'all, surprise post for today because I made a card this morning that I just had to share and I want to make sure I get it in before challenges close : )  Here it is:


I started with the Inspired By... challenge:


And the sketch to go with it:


Those two things together made me think of the How Sweet It Is DSP from a few years ago, I remembered that bold pink and turquoise stripe pattern and I added the yellow just because it felt like my card needed another color.  This also counts for the Just Add Ink challenge:


Technically I suppose I used all three : )  If you look closely at the candles, you'll notice that apparently they're wizarding candles because they float just slightly above the cake.  It happens.

Ryan and I went out running errands today to prep for his birthday party next Saturday and can I just say this is STRESSFUL.  I'm going to not do anything else useful for the rest of the day, I'm out of energy for anything.  Peace out, y'all.
