Here's the card I made for this birthday:
I used the sketch from this week's Mojo Monday and I'm also entering the following challenges: Craft Your Passion, Lemon Shortbread and Cards Und More ("Anything Goes"), Paper Sweeties (inspiration pic - I went with the colours) and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge ("One Layer").
I used a technique I saw on Pinterest for the background of this card. I dry-brushed acrylic paint on kraft and when it was dry, inked over with pumice stone distress ink. I really like the soft, chalk-like effect. I coloured the stamped flower with promarkers. Here's a closer look at image and background:
