Keeping things simple

I am now the proud mother of a 14yr old girl... yikes!  I wanted to make her a special card, she likes the cards I colour but I only had some young images and I wanted to make her a card that was more suited to her new MATURE age!
I had lots of fun with this card, its very simple but also very pretty

I think I liked the process of making this card as I actually STAMPED, and there were no digi's in site.  I have missed it.  Saying that.. my Beautiful stamp appears to be a tad crooked! 

I have used my nestabilities for the flower, and a very large punch for the lovely green branches and a martha punch for the brown border.. add a corner rounder and a button/wire and wallah all done!
