Fantastical Birthday!

I made this card actually last week for my little niece's first birthday! I made the shape of this card just by sketching out a butterfly and cutting it out. The bottom half of the card I cuttlebugged and the top half I attempted to sew with my new machine!! It came out a little funky...but my niece Rachael is 1 so I figured she really wouldn't care lol!
I used some fringe which was kind of fun because I wanted to do something "fantastical" for the Caardvarks challenge. I used some doodlebug glitter and some pearls for accents. I cut out the happy birthday and the hats from some paper I got in a stack. Then glossy accents on the polkadots of the hat.
Oh poop - I tried to post the card on caardvarks and I missed the challenge! :(
Enjoy!
