Minnie Mouse in a Party Crown Holding Birthday Cupcake

Minnie Mouse stands in a long princess-style gown and a pointed party crown, holding a large plate with a big frosted cupcake topped with a cherry. A ring of strawberries is arranged around the cupcake on the plate. She smiles and covers her mouth with one gloved hand, as if she is giggling or about to take a bite. Above her, bubble-letter text reads HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and small outlined stars float around the scene. On the left side you can see a firework burst and a little rocket with a star at its tip. The large open areas on the gown and the cupcake wrapper make this easy for younger kids to fill in. Try coloring the strawberries red and the cherry a different shade, then let your child pick a pattern for the cupcake liner, like stripes or dots. It also works well as a handmade birthday card, since the lettering at the top is already there.
