Got Treats? Birthday Card for February Play Day

We made this card for February Play Day, where we made four birthday cards.  I used this set to show its versatility, and considered it a card suitable for everyone, young and old!  Who wouldn't like to get a brightly colored birthday card with cupcakes on it?  I was trying to keep it simple, but would like to add some punched out flowers with a brad in the middle to the cupcake to dress it up a bit.  This card was greatly inspired by a card created by Jennie Maier on Stampin Connection, Stampin Up's demo web page.



My recipe for this card:
