Birthday flowers

I made a card for our friend yesterday whose birthday is today, the Fourth of July.  She loves red and gold so I used quite a bit of gold on her card and added a touch of red.

I am going to submit this to the Freshly Made Sketches challenge for this week.  This is the sketch I am following:
I am using the natural strips of the background paper for the stripe behind the circular image. 

I had this golden metallic doily in my stash and used it as the background for my little wreath of white flowers.  I think the doily looks pretty on the turquoise-to-pink paper.  And like I said, my friend likes god, which is what prompted me to add the gold dazzle line stickers around the edge of the card as well as the background doily.  The little leaves are some brads I had in my stash and they filled in some of the space around the flowers.
