Stampin' Up Language fo friendship

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Monday !!!

I wanted to start my day with a Simply Simple 68 post using the Language of Friendship stamp set.  I stamped the flowers, colored and punched them using the Boho Blossoms punch. I found this cute EF and thought I would put the flowers around the swirls but decided the last minute to mount them on the DSP.  I also created a subtle border using the dotted scallop ribbon punch.  Hope you like it.
