Happy Birthday Tag in Strawbs, Chocs and Cream

I have used a Meljens Designs Image to make this special tag for my bro-in-law who is 40 this year. (just thought that I would drop that in hehe)
Ihave coloured with my promarkers and have used my white pen for highlighting. I added stickles to the balloons and the stars and the wee dots. I used a variety of ribbons to continue the colour theme and mounted on some mirror card to give it some more strength.
I was really pleased with the way the balloons came out as I had coloured a little differently to my norm, starting with the red on the outside and ending on the highlight in the centre rather than on a top edge.

It's fun to have fun with your colours, hope you like it, I am entering this tag into the following challenges
Creatalicious Challenge 19 - Create something for a male, add 3 stars and include the colour brown. (this image actually had 3 stars in it, how perfect is that)
Allsorts Wk 90 - It's all about the sentiment
I love Promarkers challeng 52 - Birthday and Bloghop
Colour Create #64 - Colour combo Chocolate, strawberry and cream
Thanks for looking
Hugs
