Birthday, not Christmas

I did not intend for this to look so much like Christmas.  I had hoped I would have some cs that is less red - a deep pink, coral or salmon - none to be found - so I used this for the inspiration challenge.  And you need green leaves with flowers, right?  I used gel pens, Twinkling H2O and Brilliance ink to color the image.
Image - ODB; shimmery cream cs;  leafy die by Sizzix, flower - Blooms Two by Spellbinder  (first time I used this one);   Cuttlebug HB folder;  butterfly folder by Darice;
