SSHP23 - Birthstone Birthday

Happy Sunday, everyone! Here's my take on this week's challenge from the Spotlight Divas -- to create a birthday card using your birthstone colors. Since my birthstone is the emerald, I combined various shades of green with pink and white.
This is a fun challenge! You can check out this week's Saturday Spotlight challenge details (SSHP23) here.
Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a great week!!
Supplies: Stamps - Penny Black winner, Gina K Designs punchy words; Paper - MS DSP, SU! garden green, pink pirouette, PTI select white; Ink - Memento black, Versafline onyx black, Copic markers for coloring, pastels for shading; Accessories - MS white twill tape, Spellbinders scallop circle dies, SU! & EK Success scallop circle punches, diimensionals and black pearls.
