You say it's your Birthday!

I decided "Birthday" was an appropriate theme when the challenge fell on mine and somehow i messed up the dates and it is a week early. That gives everyone extra time to get my presents or you can wish me happy birthday twice!
this card is going out to my Godson Denis.
May the covenant of the rainbow be with him and I hope he enjoys his cupcakes!

I painted the rainbow with watercolors- if you are just getting started in watercolors you need good paper and you must spend money on good paint. My favorite is Daniel Smith. I ran it through the birthday cuttlebug folder when it was still slightly damp. When it was completely dry I heat embossed the quote and cupcakes . Then embellished with stickles and stardust pens.

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to me
Everyday we are born, everyday we are free!
