Forget Me Not - Flower made with Cupcake Punch

Okay, I'm back at the Cupcake punch challenge - and I've made about 8 different flowers.  The flower I have made for today's card is one of the prettiest delicate flower of spring - the Forget-me-not.  There's a reason they have that name - because once  you have them in your garden you can't get rid of them - in other words you can't forget them.  Somehow most people don't mind, because that spot of blue is so wonderful after the grayness of winter.

Stamps: Clearly for You, So Happy For You
Inks: Marina Mist, Old Olive, Black Writer
Papers: Marina Mist, Very Vanilla, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight.
Accessories: Build a Cupcake Punch, 5 Petal Flower Punch, Scallop border Punch, Photo Corner Punch, Boho Blossom Punch, Framed Tulip Embossing Folder, Chantilly crochet trim, pearls, Stampin Dimensionals, 3/4" circle punch, Vintage brad (black)

Flower:  I will be making a video tutorial within the next couple of days on how to make flowers using this punch.  This particular flower I made from the icing (top) part of the cupcake
I made 5 petals which I attached to a 3/4" round circle with tombo adhesive.  The 2 flowers in the center are from the Boho blossom punch. the leaves from the 5 petal flower punch.


 This is my inspiration for the flower.  I took this picture last spring.
