Sunshiny Birthday

I originally wanted to make this an A2 card with a "lazy river" for the girl to float down, but in the end I cut it to a square because I liked the proportions better. The water is made with alcohol inks which are great for a liquid look.

I just love this sweet girl and her tropical coconut drink!
