Here's my card to celebrate and what better way than with a yummy cupcake.

I've used a template from the  Candy Doodles CD  and printed out lots of layers to make it 3D. I added some diamond stickles to the spots on the bows for a bit of blling and also glossy accents to the choc chips. I then printed out the "3" from the Candy Doodles  CD and went around the edges with a gold pen. Finally I printed out the ticket from the  CD and added a little bow and some gems.

It's well worth going over to the Polkadoodles challenge blog to see all the lovely birthday projects and of course to be in with a chance of winning some of the fantastic prizes on offer.

Hope to see your cards soon.
