For this card, I punched out flowers. I am always struggling how to put my punched out flowers on a stem. Then I saw Sabrina's card last night found here:
I loved how she used the flourish for the stem of her flower. So I stamped a flourish with black ink. I added a little color with a green colored pencil. I added circle rhinestones to the centers of the flowers. I dyed the ribbon pink using markers and water. I love this quote by Franklin D. Roosevelt. I printed it on my computer.
To finish the card I added 2 little rhinestones in the corners.

I've never heard that quote before - it's great and a great card too.
As you know, I like flourishes for stems, but narrow ribbon works great too . My hand-drawn ones never look right.
I like the combination of round gems in the flowers and square ones in the corners.
