#happy birthday

I've had this Smartphone die for a couple months now and finally got to use it!!  Isn't it cute?  After putting it together, I realized the dark purple and the dark gray combo makes it a little hard to see the detail of the phone.  I made this for a young friend of mine that is turning 17.  So what do 17 year-old-girls like?  Smartphones!  And this one also happens to like making cupcakes (so do I!), so I combined both together to create this really fun card.  I used the same cupcake set to create the border down the right hand side AND the "patterned paper" on the left side.

Challenges:
Inspiration Destination #41--anything goes
Penny's Paper Challenge #235--anything goes
Inky Impressions #217--use 2 or more dies
Fab n' Funky #267--inspired by a song (mine is Happy Birthday)
Word Art #191--anything goes with uplifting sentiment
Creative Craft Cottage #43--Layer it up
Tuesday Throwdown #252--no patterned paper
Loves Rubberstamps #159--anything goes
Die Cuttin' Divas #223--sketch

Make it Monday #217--creating your own custom stamped borders
Craftin' Desert Divas--birthday
Jo's Scrap Shack #95--anything goes
V's Sweet Ideas--Celebrate
Crafting By Designs July challenge--anything goes
YNS #17--sketch or color combo (I used the color combo)
YNScolor-17

Supplies:
Stamps: PTI "Baker's Dozen"; MFT "Friend Request" sentiments; JustRite Stampers star background
Dies: MFT "Blueprints 13" and "Smartphone"
YNS Gumdrops
