happy birthday in peach and grey

I just discovered a new favorite color combination!  (How many favorites am I allowed???)  This is peach and grey - inspired by the bg paper whose name I forget.  The bg is embossed with a "vine" folder by Sizzix.  I used some chalk for a bg on the image panel.  It uses a favorite die - Labels 4.  Another favorite, for its terrific versatility, is the Pine branch die from Cheery Lynn.  Here, I just used tiny parts of the branches - I did not want to cover any more of the DP!  (The branches are in all 4 corners of the panel.)  To complete the sketch, I used sheer ribbon across the center, topped with narrow peach ribbon.  I hope you like this as well as I do!  The inside verse states:  God bless you always with His special love.
