Normally when I try a new techniques It comes out okay and I am happy with the results. 

But I LOVE the way this card came out I am going to make a whole series of cards using

Botanical Silhouettes from Papertrey Ink

The technique I used was from Gina K Stamp TV

I tore a piece of paper and masked off a stripe of the card front

the I used Tim Holtz Pealed Paint and inked the exposed portion of the card

I stamped Happy Birthday with Momento Tuxedo Black ink

Add a paper flower from Walk in my Garden I made in 2010 for my Halloween cards

topped it with a turquoise button
