A True Friend

I made today's card for a special friend's birthday and loved it so much that I just had to share it with all of you!

I started by embossing the light purple panel with a cuttlebug embossing folder and then adhered the embossed panel to the card with Scrap Happy Glue.  Then I tied black and white twine around the top of the card. I used the On the Fence Die and wood grain stamp to create the fence.
That beautiful flower is African Violets. I stamped the sentiment, True Friend, on vellum and adhered it to the fence with vellum tape. I finished the inside of the card too!
The Happy birthday is part of the two set True Friend Sentiment set. I hope today's project put you in the mood to stamp because the weekend is coming up!
I know that's what I'll be doing!
