If Friends Were Flowers

I'd Pick You! I love this sentiment. This card is a quick and easy one!  First I folded my card base into an A2.
I heat embossed the swirl with Pink By Design Background Stamp Swirls.  I used Ranger Embossing Ink and then used Distress Embossing Powder in Peeled Paint.
Next, I made my 3D flower.  I have made these flowers before from Plantin Schoolbook.  In fact, these were extra cuts I had left over.  If you'd like to learn how to make these flowers, I have added a video.
Once my flower was done, I inked the edges with Versa Mark in Gingerbread.  I stamped the sentiment "If friends were flowers, I'd pick you".  This sentiment is from Pink By Design Stamps Life's A Garden. 
I also attached my 3D flower and a few satin ones from Hobby Lobby.  The satin ones actually came on a ribbon and I just cut them off.
I hope you like this card.  I am really feeling like I am ready for spring! As always, I appreciate comments and followers.  Have a great day and I will be back tomorrow with a fabulous an altered canvas with Graphic 45.
