Waffle Flower Challenge- Hello Friend Card

Hi!  Hope you're having a good day!  I have a new card to share inspired by the current Waffle Flower Challenge.  This time I chose to play along with the technique challenge:

Here is the card I made:

I made a pattern in banner form using the Flower Circle set.  I started with a light blue card base and stamped the different sized circles with various shades of turquoise and blue.  I added white in there, too- heat embossing the smaller circle image.
Once my circles were all stamped, I used my machine to sew a banner string in there to connect all the circles.  I added the epoxy dots next to add a little dimension.
The sentiment has also been heat embossed using white embossing powder.

This was such a fun card to make!  I love how the stitching really ties it all together.  I also love how the white embossing turned out.  

I hope you have a chance to play along with the Waffle Flower Challenge this month!  Cute Waffle Flower stamps and dies are up for grabs if you do!!  Pop over to the Waffle Flower blog to check it out and to see what the rest of the design team created!
