A special birthday card - a baby soon

I was approached by one of my clients yesterday to make a special birthday card for her daughter-in-law who was having a birthday in early April.  The timing is special as she is also expecting her first baby - one she never expected to have as she was told there would never be one.
The information about this lady was that she liked beige, orange and a bit of black and liked cards very simple.
My client wanted her to be able to put the card on the mantle.
So, I made this easel card.  Did I meet this challenge?

Card stock:  Barely beige, dusty durango, very vanilla
Designer paper:  orange pattern
Stamps:  Awash with flowers, Kind and Caring Thoughts, Well Scripted
Ornament punch was made into vase.  A bit of black taffeta ribbon was tied at neck of vase.
Inks:  Dursty Durango, green galore, basic black
Other:  Finial press impression folder (for vase), chunky essentials (black), 1/2 pearls from pretties kit, Photo corners punch, black brads., new edge punch

This is card No. 1

 This is card No. 2.
Similar colour scheme, but not as stark.  Stamp set used:  Fifth Avenue Floral.

Which card would you recommend?  No. 1, or No. 2
