happy birthday | color throwdown #727

 hello hello!

Back with another great Color Throwdown challenge - Color Throwdown #727 - mustard, pink, green

I took inspiration from the challenge photo prompt when designing my card....

I chose the plaid embossed background as a nod to the texture of the gloves - athough, I will admit, I was a little disappointed that my mustard color turned out looking more 'French's yellow mustard' than the 'Grey Poupon' I was aiming for.... lol.... but I went with it anyway!

I knew I wanted to use a flower in my design as well, so I turned to one of my favorites, the Altenew/Pink Fresh 'celebrate us' flower/die combo, and I chose pink inks to mimic the colors in the photo prompt. 

A few gold accents for added interest, and voilà, finished card!
