A birthday card out of my comfort zone

Back in June my son was going to a birthday party held at a local pool, and since I had a lot of embellishments bought at the local grocery store, I decided to try to use those, even though very colorful cards are not my thing. I like putting on embellishment, but sometimes you buy things that end up just laying around forever because you don't know how to use them, so this was quite a challenge for me. The background paper is also from the grocery store from some 12x12 paperpad they sold a while ago. Here is the card:

As you can see, it is very colorful.

Background paper and embellishments from local grocery store
