Birthday Card for Two Challenges

Here's a birthday card that's for two challenges and features some retiring products.

First, I've used the Global Design Project#240 here.
It's a Case the Designer and I chose to use the colors from Kerstin's card. I also replicated the circles.

And then it's for the Facebook Demonstrator Planning Place Stamping Challenge#6 here.
It's a challenge to use punches.

Birthday Backgrounds and Piece of Cake are the stamp sets.  And the punches are the Cake Builder punch and the Starburst punch. All these items are going to retire.

I added some 1/8 inch Lovely Lipstick Grosgrain ribbon(retiring) and some Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels and Happiness Blooms Enamel dots(retiring).

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Birthday Backgrounds and Piece of Cake
Papers: WW, Lovely Lipstick
Inks: Lovely Lipstick, Coastal Cabana, Smoky Slate
Accessories: Aqua painter, 1/8 inch Lovely Lipstick grosgrain ribbon, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots, Stampin dimensionals, Starburst punch, Cake Builder punch
