Numbered Birthday Card With Tuesday Morning Sketch #530

A very special young man is celebrating his 39th birthday and I had to make him a very special card!  This week's Tuesday Morning Sketch #530 was perfect to highlight his special age.

The Sapphire circle and numbers were dipped in Versamark Ink and then into Polysparkle Tinsel Embossing Powder (very old Close to My Heart product) and embossed.  I love the shimmer it created.  The Party Balloons (retired from CTMH) greeting was also stamped in Versamark Ink and then Sapphire Ink and then embossed with Polysparkle Tinsel embossing powder.  The patterned paper is Hawthorn.

Here is the fabulous sketch that inspired my card design:

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
