Birthday Flowers

It was my Mother in Law's Birthday yesterday and this is the card that I made for her - she loves anything floral and shiny.

I used a decoupage image and patterned card stock from the Hunkydory Flutterbye Wishes collection with silver Mirri card as a base.  The sentiment is a LOTV stamp and I also added some pearls and a seam binding bow.

I apologise for the glare but I just wanted to show the inside of my card that has been decorated with another piece of card stock from the collection.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
