Embellish Birthdays Color Challenge

Embellish Magazine has a colour challenge ending today that uses colors from the following graphic.



I found these colours to be out of my comfort zone but I had fun making this card anyways!




I spent more time making this ribbon flower that I did making the rest of the card! It might have been easier had I used instructions from somewhere rather than making it up. There is also a row of pink gemstones just above the ribbon flower.



I added little dots of pink to the sentiment with my Copics and replaced the 3 little speech bubble dots with black gemstones.



To me, the bird looked like a Flamenco dancer so I just kept adding embellishments that I thought might work!

Thank you for looking.
