Embellish Challenge with birds

WooHoo!  I'm so excited that I'm able to play in a card challenge!!  Oh how I've missed playing.  It's been a while, but when I was briefly blurfing earlier today, I happened across Embellish's Color challenge and made the colors immediately caught my eye - they remind me of the flowers and lushness of Hawaii!  I knew I had to play.  Here's a look at the Embellish colors and inspiration:

And here's my card:

I loved putting this card together.  As you can see, I've used the Tasteful Trim Bigz XL die again.  The leaves for the birds are actully punched out of a Crate and Barrel catalog - it was a pretty green comforter!  Here's the recipe for you:
