Circle of Friendship

Have you seen the movie Meet the Faulkers? It's one of my favorite movies and in the movie Dustin Hoffman tells his son in law (Ben Stiller) about his "circle of friends" and how he has to earn being in his circle. It's too funny. You'll have to see the movie to get that one. Sorry. Anyway, that's what I thought of when I titled this post. This card is for a friend you want to send flowers to but you don't want the flowers to die. These flowers are perfectly preserved forever. The Pink Passion base was cut out using the Coluzzle. I used our new 5 Petal Flower punch and our Spring Flower Bouquet punch to create all these flowers. Then I used the polka dot stamp from the Three For You punch box with Craft White and Classic Pink Passion ink for some of the flowers. I stamped the saying from the Garden Whimsy set and punched that out with the Large Oval punch. The cardstock colors are Whisper White (of course), Pink Passion, Pixie Pink, Only Orange and Apricot Appeal. I used our Circle Rhinestone Brads in Fire and our regular brads in Earth Elements, Rich Regals, and Soft Subtles. All of the flowers and the saying are on dimensionals. Here's a quick tip: I accidentally got some Pink Passion ink on the white background, after it was all assembled. AAAGGGHHH!!! So, I just dabbed my finger into the White Craft Pad and rubbed it over the mistake and it was all gone!! WOO HOO!! It seemed to cover it up pretty well. Can you see it?? I hope not. WOW, that was a long winded post. Sorry. :0) Big hugs to you all!
