flower

Just a quick card made a few days ago... The flower was made using four punched scalloped circles (cut at each scallop, crumpled and inked)... I've used the technique a few times (and you've probably seen it around long before now), but never as a flower on a stem.  In the past, I've used the flower with a button and linen thread as an embellishment rather than a focal point, so I thought I'd try something different. 

There's a "happy birthday" sentiment at the bottom of the card, albeit hidden by the ribbon!  Also... have you noticed the leaves?  Felt!  Something new to look out for from 1st April.
