Pink & Black birthday card

This one is definitely different than my norm but I really like it.  I like black but I don't tend to use it much and pink just isn't my thing so I avoid it as much as possible.

However, I really wanted to jump in on GAB's first challenge so I used pink and black.  :)  The black and lined pink are misc. craft store purchases and the black with pink dots from a pack of MME maybe?  The cover was ripped off unfortunately.  The pink paper is SU's Pretty in Pink, the white Whisper White.  The stamped flowers are from SU's Botanical Blooms and the sentiment Birthdays Count.  The pink paper behind those flowers was embossed with dots.  The paper flowers are pop-dotted layers of the same papers punched with SU's Boho Blossoms XL punch and their centers are mini brads I coated with WW craft ink and then put Crystal Effects on.

The challenges:
