A birthday card for a Chef

I cannot take all the credit for this card because my son, nearly 6, coloured the digital image with his own crayons. You see, this birthday card is for my youngest brother, his uncle, who is a chef, so my son wanted to participate in the making of it. And fair play to him, he helped me a lot! I am sure my brother will be very chuffed with such a creative card! ;-)
If I am not mistaken the chef image is from Bits of Cheer, coloured as explained by my son with his own crayons and highlighted with Stickles, mounted with 3D pads for dimension; the yummy ice-cream and cupacakes backing paper is a download, EHI Make a Wish; the sentiment was created in Word; Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder; Nellie's and Spellbinders die cuts.
