Card for a Big Birthday using Birthday Surprise from Stampin' Up! UK

August was a big month for birthdays round here and some of the birthdays were bigger than others - today I am going to share a card I made for one such big birthday.  I am happy to report that the recipient of this card is celebrating this milestone birthday with suitable panache!

The patterned background was sponged using Pool Party Ink and the wonderful Dot and Stripes Mask.  These sturdy masks are a lot of fun to play with and I love the results they give.  I have used three different Stamp Sets all stamped in Island Indigo Ink - Kinda Eclectic, Birthday Surprise and Metro Type Alphabet.

Since it is a Golden Birthday I have used some of the Gold Foil Sheets and the Gold Fancy Foil Vellum.  The butterflies were punched with the Elegant Butterfly and Bitty Butterfly Punches.  I have also used the 1 3/8 and 1 3/4 Circle Punches.
