Cut it Up Challenge #156 ~ Birthdays

Hi Crafty Friends,
Here's another challenge from Cut it Up Challenge Blog.
Our theme is Birthdays.  You can never have enough Birthday cards in your stash.  I know my hubby and daughters always ask to see my Bday stash when they need a card and, yes, they've even chosen ones to give back to ME!
Here's my card using the Birthday Frog image from our sponsor, A Day for Daisies.

I've been trying to use some new techniques and or supplies that I have.  On today's card I used  the Birthday Balloon Stencil from Craftin Desert Divas for my background.  The frog was colored using Copic markers and then I added Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle to the hat along with some polka dots made using a Signo white gel pen.
Come on over to Cut it Up Challenge Blog and join in the fun.
