Birthdays and Bunting

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a great weekend wherever you are. 
Mine has remained quiet.....
This card is using Cerridwen from Saturated Canary.
I have coloured her with copics and added a little stickles to the cute little butterflies on the image to make them sparkle a bit.
I have used my sewing machine for the stitching.
The bunting is a Whimsey die and the butterflies are a Martha Stewart Punch.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
The papers are My Minds Eye Vanity Fair.  The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.






I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Saturated Canary - May Flowers
Perfect Sentiments Challenge - Banner Birthdays
Dis Digi Designs - Bling (hope the sparkle on the butterflies is enough)
Cardmaking Mamas - May Flowers
