I have never made a card this small and was quite a challenge. I am trying to decide it this is good enough to participate in a swap amongst demo's. i realize that the word stamp is not straight and it wouldn't happen on a real swap card. Curious if you received this card in a swap would you be disappointed or glad? I am still deciding whether to join the swap or not

The flower is actually very simple. I punch a circle of desired size and then go around the edge with fancy edged scissors. I cut the petals to shape, wet with spray bottle of water being careful not to saturate and form them around the end of a water color brush. When they are dry in a couple of hours I add my color highlights in the center and the edges. I attached the 3 circle flowers with a brad and punched a 1/4 in circle and colored to match. It is time consuming but I love the end result.
