Sugared up birthday

I made this card for my sister in law that lives in America. I joined in with the sketch on the Sugar-bowl-blog. The sketch is by Tiets and was really great to play with. I think my card is very eclectic. The papers where very busy and needed the embellishments to bind it all together or at least that's my excuse lol. As it is the first challenge on the sugar bowl blog I thought I would use my Sugar dumpling papers by blonde moments. The whole card has a pink, lilac and heart theme going on (just incase it wasn't obvious :o)
The theme is carried on inside of the card, I hope to do more inside decorating on my cards, something I have wanted to do for awhile.
Materials used:
Stamps : Sugar nellies penpal
Papers : Blonde moments Sugar Dumplings
Flowers : Prima flowers with seed beads added
