dotty birthday

well today i am showing the birthday card i made for my dad who`s birthday it is this weekend. used the fab sketch over on sketch saturday, included the challenge on pennyblack which this week is "lets get dotty"~used dots on your card, and the challenge over on secret crafter which isto use "hearts" on your card. ~seems my photo is a little blurred again, clicking on it may help!!
used pennyblack ~life of the party~ stamp (decoupaged the balloons), dovecraft mens papers, nestabilities large pinking circles, cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, sizzix night and day alphabet, quickutz hearts and stampin` up scallop edge punch, see d`s wording, brads from my stash, finished with a little glitter on the balloons.
