Embossed and Sponged Background

In one of the classes I attended we made the card pictured below.  Isn't it pretty?  This one took a little bit of time to create, but it was well worth it.

The class was several months ago and I don't remember all the steps to making the card.   I do recall coloring the white silk flower with markers to match the colors on the card.  A paper flower cut from a die (or maybe it was punched) and a pearl were attached to the center of the silk flower.  The sentiment and pretty little pink ribbon added the final touches.

I like the layout and pink and yellow colors.  Great colors for wishing someone a happy birthday.
