Several Challenges 2022-05-01

Hello. With the card below I'll enter the following challenges (in alphabetical order):

 Addicted to Stamps and More, Challenge #428 - Birthdays



Seize the Birthday, Challenge #237 - Butterflies or Hummingbirds










This is a birthday card for a lady who loves flowers, butterflies and hummingbirds. There is only one layer on the card base. In the retiform tech I used purple and yellow Distress Ink to divide the layer into sections, stamped the images and the sentiment with black Versafine ink, added some Stickles on the stamens of the flowers and on the bodies of the butterflies and hummingbirds. The sentiment is Finnish and means "Happy Birthday".
