Birthday Card Using Ching-Chou Kuik "Purple Balloon" and CTMH products

Hello Friends!  We have cool temperatures in Southern CA; but nothing as cold as some of you have in the US.  The snow looks awesome until you have to drive in it, right?  Stay warm and drive safe.

I purchased this gorgeous new digital stamp a couple days ago; and it is currently half price.  It is Ching-Chou Kuik "Purple Balloon".  Most of you know that I love the color purple; so I had to buy it right away.  LOL!  I decided to keep the color purple for the balloon and found some retired CTMH Make Waves paper that had purple flowers on it.  My other favorite color is pink; so my paper has both.  I felt this card called for a bow and flowers.  LOL!
