Kraft Birthday

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a fab weekend.
This is a card I made for a Blogging buddy, Lisa cos its her birthday today.  
I know she has received it so I can now blog it...
The image is Cupcake Ruby from Ladybug Crafts Ink and I coloured with copics.
First time on Kraft card so please be kind... lol
The doily is Cheery Lynn French Pastry and the swirl is Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish.
The corner is Cheery Lynn Corner E.  The butterflies are a Martha Stewart Punch.





I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Card Makin Mamas - Make It Girlie
Fussy and Fancy - Die Cuts/ Punches
Crafty Ribbons - Things with Wings

Your card is really great and the Cheery Lynn dies makes it very harmonious! Never seen them punched out in Kraft paper before but now I want to try it out myself because I like the way you made it!
Thanks for playing along with Crafty Ribbons and welcome back later in the week for a new challenge!
