Celebrate! birthday cards

Hello again! I have a new pair of cards to share. I was also inspired by a pair of challenges. First was the current card sketch at Stick It Down:

Second was the pretty inspiration photo from The Card Concept:

I started my mixed media style card by stamping the background with three painted style flower stamps. I did an ombre effect with four colors of pink inks. I then stamped the leaves in a couple of different greens. I also stamped and heat embossed the sentiment. Then I attached the sentiment with foam tape. I tucked the leaves under the sentiment. To finish off the card, I put some Stickles in the middle of the biggest flowers.
