I used the lime digi and sentiment from Vera Lane Studio's Citrus Sisters digital stamp set to create this birthday card for my aunt (I used the lemon on this You're the Zest card, but this is the first time I've used the lime).
The circular wonky stitched die is a new no-brand one I recently found at a hard to resist price (obviously, I didn't) that I was glad to see fit perfectly within a larger Die-namics circle die (love my layers!). Although I've had it quite some time now, the lime paper is having its first outing, too; it's digital PrettyGrafik's Limelicious (retired). The green gingham paper from my scraps drawer is Folio. The Artemio ribbon is another stash item I've had several years and never used; it's perfect on this card. Enamel dots add the finishing touch.
