Happy Thursday evening everyone, I am going a little off the colors for the challenge at  Paper Sweeties.  but I am still going with the cherries.I found some pretty pink cherry ribbon in my stash so  I decided to do one in pink rather then red.

I used pink card stock printed deep pink and lighter pink craft stock I used my MS punch to do the bottom of the card with pink cherry ribbon underneath layered. I added a tag I also found in my stash happy Birthday to you. I added 2 pink flower gems. I also added a bow made from the pink cherry ribbon.
