Birthday card

Hello again I've got another card that I put together today. I got some of the Cricut markers when I got my Cricut but then I saw on YouTube that some other people had found cheaper alternatives that also will draw with the Cricut. I bought some American Crafts Chalk markers for a bargain the other day at Tuesday Morning and I tried them and they are great. I used my Explore to write the greetings both in gold and white chalk markers on some black card, I really love the look of the writing on cards. I matted the black layer onto a red dotted DCWV card. For the balloons I used a freebie I got ages ago from Miss Kates Cuttables and stamped Peachy Keen faces on them. I'm using my PK stamps a lot lately I love the cute faces. I added some twine and a bow and also some star gemstones. Thanks for looking, have a nice weekend.
