Birthday Card with Custom Background

Ok – I admit – I LOVE this card! :)  I’ve never made anything like this before!

Made this for a friend. I gave to R with a heavy heart ;) lol…

The birthday background was fun stamping. Distressed was the keyword here :)

The little sprite is the same as from this card. I LOVE this Sprite.
