If Friends Were Flowers (GS #59, 2S4Y Kazan #63)

Good Afternoon on this beautifully sunny day, at least where I live here in Oregon.  The card I have to share with you today is based on this sketch from Get Sketchy and also this sketch from 2 Sketches 4 You.  I grass border punched a strip of the green gingham paper and adhered it to the bottom of the card.  I stamped the stems (Everyday Button Bits by Papertrey Ink) on cardstock, die cut it with my circle Nestabilities, and adhered it to the card.  I grass border punched another strip of green gingham paper and adhered it over the first with pop dots.  I glued flower buttons to the tops of the stems.  I stamped the clouds on a scrap of blue gingham patterned paper, cut them out and adhered them to the card with pop dots.  I stamped the sentiment and tied a ribbon around the top of the card.  I'm really happy with the way this card turned out.  I hope you are able to get some crafting time in this week or at least some time to enjoy yourself.  Happy crafting!
