Black & White Floral Rosette Birthday Card 2008-001

This card was inspired by one posted by http://kwernerdesign.com/ on her blog. She has some darling creations! The flower was inspired by a Martha Stewart free handout from Michaels and is explained in my tutorial below. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave me a comment & I'll be happy to try to help. This was my first tutorial attempt, so I'm open to suggestions; but since it was a trial and error adventure, I thought a tutorial might be helpful to others!
Paper: Black Linen Cardstock; DCWV Textured White Cardstock; Cool Metallic Arctic Snow Text by The Paper Company (for the flower)
Embellishments: Karen Foster Design Rub-On; Making Memories Brad; ribbon
Tools: Scor-It Board; Purple Cows Paper Cutter/Rotary Trimmer; Creative Memories Circle Cutting Templates; sewing machine
