BDay Card for BIL-2

Hello! Back again with a birthday card for my other BIL. This time I was inspired by the colors of this week's Color Throwdown Challenge (they are celebrating their FIFTH anniversary - WOO HOO!)

Pretty, aren't they? I was even inspired by the flip flops to use Papertrey Ink's 'Flipping Out' stamp set and dies:

I really wanted to play up the pink more and add some fun rhinestones or flowers or hearts on the flip flops, but I refrained from doing so since this card was, after all, for a man. I am hoping he won't mind the splash of pink.
I am also entering this card in the Anything Goes Seize the Birthday Celebration, and

Moxie Fab World's Birthday Card Challenge.
Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful evening!
