Balloon Flowers & Lark Bunting - UDI color challenge

The theme for the month of March with Utah Divas International here is a color challenge using any shade of purple, green, black and a neutral.
Now, that's a challenge I couldn't resist - so here is what I came up with:

Stamp: Sincere Sentiment
Inks: Rich Razzelberry, Basic Black, Old Olive
Papers: Very Vanilla, Wicked Fun Specialty Paper, Perfectly Plum, Old Olive, Basic Black
Accessories: 5 Petal Punch, Boho Blossom Punch, Two Step Bird Punch, Scallop Edge Punch, Square Lattice embossing folder, 5/8" black satin ribbon, Silver Chunky glitter, White gel pen, rhinestones
Flower  Balloom Flower made with the 5 Petal Punch.  Centre made with flower from Boho blossom punch.  Edges inked with Rich Razzelberry and then pinched.  Leaves also from 5 petal punch.  After cutting leaf it was folded in half and edges roughened with scissors.
Bird: Lark Bunting, usually a prairie bird, but fit into the color scheme of the challenge.
