Our theme is birthday cards and here is mine



For this birthday card I have used the Happy Birthday chipboard title from Scrapware which was embossed with white Ranger embossing puffs.  
  

The scallop edge on the bottom of the card was actually cropped from the Cosmo Cricket Hello Sunshine - Hopscotch paper which I adhered along the bottom of the card then cut along the scallop shape.   
 I also cropped one of the circle elements and layered this over the top with 3D foam to give it some dimension.  I then sanded the edges of the scallop paper to make the scallop edge stand out from the black cardstock background. 
Other circle elements were cropped from the Cosmo Cricket Hello Sunshine – Blowing Bubbles paper and layered under the chipboard present embellishment.   
To finish off I tied a bow using the white satin corrugated ribbon and adhered a silver lollipop charm just above it.   
To add the bling I chopped one of the gorgeous rhinestone circles in half and placed them as shown on the card.
