Happy Birthday Card

Yesterday I made a super quick birthday card for our Pastor.  I used kraft paper as the base and Stampin Up paper for the rest, of course.  The sentiment is from the Michael's $1 bin and the ink is Brocade Blue from SU.  I cut the balloons from the Simply Charmed cartridge (which I didn't realize I had...wow) using my gypsy.  They are cut at 3.5". I cut the strings off and taped hemp cord to the back to add a little flair.  The top note is SU.  I actually don't have the top note cutting die, but bought a lot on ebay and use that instead.  
Hope you like!
