Welcome back to the PDE Linky Party!

It's another fun week for me to showcase the PDE Linky Party.  You know, even though it is the Christmas Season there are still birthdays and the like to celebrate and today's card is for one of those birthdays...my dads birthday.  I actually lost track of time and ended up starting a card way to late but I'm still super happy with how this turned out!

 So I got the base and panels for this card from the Silhouette Store.  The file itself comes with full birthday decorations but I wanted to be able to use my Jaded Blossom Birthday Panel stamp set and die so I altered it a bit to work for me.

 This is what I'd consider the front.  Since there is cake and ice cream on the card I thought this sentiment would go great.

 The middle two panels.  I had fun coloring the ice cream though I do believe I was drooling by the end.

 And the last panel.  You can't tell from the photo but I used Smooch moonlight on the frosting of the cupcake and the whipped cream of the ice cream sundae.  I also added Smooch illuminate on the candles to make them dance a little. 

We wrote our note on the back of the card and put it in the mail right away.  I doubt it will be there on time as the weather in my area has been delaying all sorts of things...mail, UPS, you get the idea, but it is the thought that counts, right?

So, there you have it!  I hope you will join us this week over at the PDE Linky party where anything you create can go in the 'challenge'...just share with us your creations!
