Lovely Flowers - Unity FWF

(((If you happen to be looking for my New Years Giveaway of the Unity set Snowflake Kisses, click HERE or just scroll down. It is open for a few more days!)))

Good morning! Happy first Friday of 2013!!! Can't believe that I'm writing that already! But...since it's Friday, it is also time for Unity Friends with Flair - so here is what I made for this week:
This used a couple of my new favorite stamps from the December Kit of the Month. Want to know what I especially love? See that lace on my card? Yep...that is the stamp from the kit, just heat embossed in white! Doesn't it look amazingly REAL?!?!?! I can't believe how great it stamps - and the detail!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
I also stamped that flower image, colored it with Copics, and cut it out with a circle Spellbinder's Die, and inked the edges with distress ink.
Just for fun, I added some dots of Diamond Glaze on the flower to look like dew drops. 
I trimmed the bottom of the circle flat so it would fit against the lace, attached it to the green cardstock, then wrapped some jute twine around several times, tying in a bow. 
Finished off by attaching that to the background with foam adhesive, stamped the sentiment with PTI ink, and used distress ink on the edges, before also attaching with foam adhesive along the bottom.
Thanks for stopping by! Hope your new year is off to a great start!
