Happy Birthday Dad

Hi friends. Here is a card I made for my dad. His birthday was on 11th October. It's a sheer co-incidence that I used only green colors PP for the card. My dad has retired from Indian Army and their uniform color is also Green :) [Olive Green].
 The embellishments are handmade and are a mashup of various things. I removed one layer form cardboard box and got this corrugated sheet. Then I cut it into heart and flower shapes. The center of the flower is a piece of metal from broken bracelet.
 I layered the heart with tile punch cutout. Then I drilled 2 holes into it like a button and threaded the string.
