I also ran the petals through my cuttlebug and brushed ink all over the petals...I was deliberate in the way I inked the petals, I was going for a different kind of look.
I nailed a TON of brads for texture into the center of the flower. Then I covered the brads in white pigment ink and dusted it with holographic embossing powder. I also embossed the other part of the card with my CB, added a nice white layer inside so I can write a nice little message and voila! Happy spring card :)
