Bugaboo's 5th Birthday - Day 7 Recipe

It's day 7 and the final day of the week long birthday party over at Catch the Bug - we celebrate Bugaboo's 5th birthday!
You can win daily prizes, and if you choose to participate in all the challenges this week you might be the winner of the Grand Prize.

Today's challenge is to make a card following a recipe - I chose the "sno cones" option, but there are more to choose from.

This image is this week's freebie, so why not head over to Bugaboo to catch it.
I could not resist using my new background die again. This time I chose to cut  in my yellow chevron patterned DP and let the blue panel paper shine through. I mounted my image on a panel made of the same blue paper, and I also decorated with sequins, a heat embossed sentiment, glitter glue on the spots on the umbrella and glossy accent on the rain drops.


This card is also for these challenges:
1) Penny's Paper-Crafty - #211 Anything goes
2) Cards und More - # 124 - Animals
3) Dream Valley Challenges - Anything Goes
