Birthday card

I usually bring cards I make to work with me and show them to coworkers before giving them away, and one of the women I usually share my cards with asked me to make a card for a dear friend of hers that is celebrating her 65th birthday. She wanted something special, so this is what I came up with. I knew the Elements of Style stamp set (pictured right) would be perfect. 
The card turned out great and my coworker was extremely happy with it! After taking the pictures, I decided to add the hummingbird stamp, so it is not shown in all the images below.

Cardstock: Kiwi Kiss (retired), Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Rose Red
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Rose Red, Regal Rose, Old Olive (Markers)
Stamps: Elements of Style, All Holidays, En Francais background
Punches: Scallop Trim Border, 1/2" circle, Curly Label Punch

Other: dimensionals, Big Shot, Top Note die, Little Leaves sizzlit die, paper snips, Build-a-Brad in Antique Brass, Chocolate Chip satin ribbon, Vanilla Smooch Spritz

 The pictures above show the difference before and after I added the hummingbird to the bottom left.

Let me know what you think! 

Thank you for dropping by!
