Embossed Flower

There's a tutorial on Stars & Stamps today by Pam at Airbornewife's Stamping Spot that is so pretty, I just had to try it!! I used generic dark blue cardstock, some flowers I bought at a Scrapbook Expo a few years ago, SU's Teeny Tiny Wishes and Priceless stamps, SU rhinestones, and an SU punch for the sentiment....


I'm showing the side view so you can see that I gave the tag a little bit of dimension with some pop dots.

I've also been having lots of fun with digi's... My OWH friends weren't kidding when they told me these things were addictive!!

The digi is from Jedi Scrapbooking and if you get a chance, I highly recommend visiting her page! The papers and embellishments are from my Exscrapaganza kit, and I colored the image with SU markers. And I think I bought the rafia at Michael's.

I wanted to put a sentiment on it, but couldn't figure out which one, so what do you think if I leave it as is? Too plain?
