Happy Birthday to You




Hey there! Here's a fun card for you. It's inspired by Dawn's color challenge. I added some glitz and glam to the card by using glitter. How did I get those glitter polka dots? I stamped polka dot pattern, then added glue dots over the pattern. Next, adhere the glitter to the dots.

Enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by!
