Halloween Birthday

My daughter's birthday is on Halloween and she has always loved mixing Halloween and her birthday celebration. Her card this year is a bit of both. It was fun for me to try to piece the words Halloween Birthday onto her card using several different sentiment sets. A Wreath for All Seasons is such a versatile set and I thought it was fun using the cute little Halloween brads as accents on her birthday wreath.
Details:
Paper: Plum Pudding, miscellaneous Halloween patterned paper from Target
Stamps: Wreath for All Seasons, miscellaneous $1 stamps from JoAnns
Ink: Simply Chartruese, Plum Pudding, Orange Zest
Extras: Halloween Brads, Woodgrain impression plate, Mat Stack #4, black zig zag stitching

I really like how you used Wreath for All Seasons on a Halloween card. Too bad we don't have Halloween over here.
