If Friends Were Flowers, I'd Pick You

Spring is taking it's sweet time about coming here in NW Wisconsin.  It was below zero again last night.  But I'm being positive and thinking spring.
This week, at The Cutting Cafe, we have 2 sets to choose from:

 FLOWER POT SHAPED CARD TEMPLATE AND CUTTING FILE...

 SENTIMENTS STEMS AND FLOWER TOPS PRINTABLE STAMP SET.

I usually choose the cutting files, when given a choice, but I decided to challenge myself and use the Sentiments Stems & Flowers printable stamp set.  It's has tons of options and was great fun to work with!

I printed one of the many stems that come in the set, and one of the many flower options.  I used a 1/2 inch circle punch on the flower, and glued it to the button.  I used a small heart punch to make the leaves on the flower.  There's also some 3 Girl JAM lace and ribbon on the card.  The papers are by Close To My Heart. They are the Ariana Paper pack.
I feel warmer already!  Don't forget to visit The Cutting Cafe blog each Thursday.  Leave a comment for your chance to win 3 sets of your choice.  You'll want this this set, for sure!
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Catered Crop -- Spring Fever recipe swap
Come and Get It Challenges -- Easter/Spring
Crafting When We Can -- Hearts & Flowers
Sentimental Sundays -- Flowery Springtime

    HOW cute!! Love the stem with the sentiment and floral papers. If this doesn't make you feel springy, not sure what would!
