I would say "you made my day" is the correct one. 
I wonder if "happy camper" would work here..

Hi,
I'd prefer to say 'You've made my day'.
As for the 'happy camper' expression, you can say this but much depends on the context and on the type of relationship you have with the other person.
Let me just offer a couple of comments to consider.
First, don't say it about something serious. eg when the doctor says 'The tests show you do not have cancer',

Thanks for that explanation and your advise, Clive!:)
So, I shouldn't use that with someone I don't know much. Only with people I have confidence with and in a very informal context, right? (I won't use it, this is just curiosity:) )
