I made my own template then cut pieces from the colors I needed and rounded their bottoms using my colluzzle templates. I stamped the flower design using two stamps from the above set. It worked beautifully. The sentiment at the bottom is also from the same set. The finishing touch that pulled it all together was sponging with distress ink.
This was a fun challenge Dawn. Thanks for inspiring me.
