Bark, It's Your Birthday!

Did the title throw you off?  This week's challenge over at For Fun Challenges is a birthday for those who are celebrating a Leap Year Birthday! This is my second and last week as their guest designer and it's been great to join the team!  My grandfather was born on a leap year and he always joked with us that he was younger than he looked!  So please join us with your birthday cards to help us celebrate all those born on leap years!

This is the card that I've made for this week's challenge.
For my card I coloured this fun pup with his balloon from K'n K Designs. I inked the edges a bit with green ink from Windflower and matted him on some sparkly blue cardstock. I placed this over some bright lined paper from my stash that I matted to some black textured cardstock for accent.  I tied a bright red polka dot ribbon around the top and popped up the sentiment over the edge of the image section.  For a final touch I added some bright red rhinestones from Forever In Time.
This weeks sponsor is K'n K Designs and they have some wonderful images!
