Bird Banter meets Petal Passion birthday

I made this birthday card for a co-worker.  It features the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper 145589 along with the Bird Banter stamp set 145852.  I cut a whisper white cardstock layer and a Petal Passion DSP layer at 5 1/4 x 4.  I then used the layering circle framelits to cut a circle in both layers at the same time.  I then used the white cardstock layer over the top of another whisper white layer to sponge soft sky ink into the circle.  I stamped the leaf branch onto the soft sky circle and then adhered my DSP layer over the whisper white layer.  I then cut a scalloped circle slightly bigger from a layer of lemon lime twist cardstock and then cut a circle one size down into the center to make the scalloped circle outline and adhered it on top of the DSP.

I stamped the cockatiel bird from the Bird Banter stamp set onto shimmery white cardstock 101910.  I then colored my bird with an aqua painter using lemon lime twist 144086 and bermuda bay 131171 inks.  The finishing touch for this card is a strip of 1/4" organza ribbon 145590 with a strip of the lemon lime twist ombre ribbon 144234.  I stamped the sentiment on whisper white using bermuda bay ink and cut it out with a framelit from the Petals and More framelits 145655.  This is popped up on some mini stampin dimensionals 144108.  My card base is a standard A2 whisper white card base.
