A little watercolor and a little Rock n Roll PLUS a shaker!!

Lots going on here, huh?
First a little watercolor for fun,
then a little rock n roll (notice the balloon animal)
and last but NOT least, a shaker in the word "birthday"!
and then I had to add those sparkly stripes to the background to go with the sparkly silver sequins on the front of the card!

 
stamps:  Avery Elle: Party animal, Impression Obsession: Thin Stripes
dies:  PTI: birthday word, PTI edgers die
ink:  distress for watercolor, PTI: spring rain, blueberry sky (the balloon animal)
misc:  Wow metallic silver sparkle embossing glitter
