Happy Birthday to You

This is for the challenge over at Michelle Perkett Studio Challenge Blog:  This weeks challenge inspired by a song.  Every time I looked at the free image from M. Perkett  I had to choose the song:   Happy Birthday to You.
A little history about the song from Wikipedia:  The melody of "Happy Birthday to You" comes from the song "Good Morning to All", which was written and composed by American siblings Patty Hill and Mildred J. Hill in 1893.[3] Patty was a kindergarten principal in Louisville, Kentucky, developing various teaching methods at what is now the Little Loomhouse;[4] Mildred was a pianist and composer.[2], p. 7 The sisters created "Good Morning to All" as a song that would be easy to be sung by young children.[2], p. 14






I made this card with a 3-D'ish look,prismacolor pencils, stickles, german glass glitter for the cake, some ribbon and stash paper.   Linking this to Michelle Perkett Studio Challenge Inspired by a Song
Hope you have a nice day!

    Lovely birthday card, Kim! I like the color combo, bow and glitter. The trivia about the Happy Birthday song is interesting. Thank you for joining this week's “Inspired by a Song” challenge at Michelle Perkett Studio. Have a great week!

    This is a precious card! I love birthdays and being born in the winter, primarily being born close to Christmas in December I appreciate cards not reeking of red and green holly berries!
