New AAA Birthday Challenge - Anything Goes Birthday!

 

We're celebrating our 7th birthday at the AAA Birthday Challenge Blog with a special challenge:

So this month our challenge is anything goes birthday - a really easy one to join in with!  You can find all the details on the challenge blog here.

Here's another view of my card:

I used a new stamp from Uniko called Background Blocks Birthday Scramble and coloured the letters and icons with Promarkers.  

I added some paper from Dovecraft (actually from a Christmas pack!) and a few gems too.

As this is a new stamp, I'm linking my card up to the NBUS Challenge.

The birthday sentiment is from Stampin' Up and the die cut is also from Stampin' Up - I cut it from a scrap of silver glitter card.
