40th Birthday invite for Ana

Ana placed an order for a custom birthday invite, in a "Chinese / Confusius Say" theme, using the idea of "40 and still hot" for the wording.  This was definitely a challenge for me, but I just love how it turned out.  She opted for a red and gold color palette, and wanted the design to be whimsical, but mature.  Here's her final chosen design, thanks Ana!
