Stamp Something - Favourite Embellishment (Flowers)

Creative Card Crew (27) - 2 Papers/3 Flowers/2 Brads/1 Button/1 Ribbon

Following the lovely sketch I covered the base card with paper, then added a strip of card and paper to the bottom of the card, including a punched flower with brad centre. Next I embossed a piece of white card using the cuttlebug and rounded the corners. The image was coloured with MLP and Sakura Stardust pens then layered using Nesties. The greeting was also layered using Nesties. Finally, I punched a tag and added paper, flowers, button, brad, eyelet & ribbon. The little dragonfly brad goes through one of the holes in the button, hadn't thought of doing that before...
