Blue Birthday Card with Ballerina

I used my Go Kreate dies to make the card base and frame. The background DP is from Bo Bunny. The frame is made of white paper which I covered with shabby blue Fran-tage. The birthday greeting in Norwegian is made using a NorthStar stamp. I heat embossed it using white embossing powder. 
This little ballerina is called Abi and lives over at All Dressed Up Stamps. I colored her  with Promarkers, added lots of blue glitter glue to her dress and the ribbon in her hair. I also added a pearl. The bow is made with blue seam binding ribbon and I attached a single flower to it.

3) Sweet Stamps - #141 Frames
4) Love to Scrap -Shades of Blue
