Handmade flower

I think that this simple style is truest to my heart. I get carried away with all sorts of fancy sketches, but the ones which please me most are the simple ones.
This sketch is from Sweet Sketch Sunday, (but this card is too late to be submitted) the handmade flower is for the challenge at Cupcake Craft Challenges and the theme of petals and pearls is from Allsorts Challenge Blog.
The sentiment is from Stampin' Up, as is the scalloped circle from which I made the petals of the flower. The central part is from brad making kit from Papermania, with a few added pearls. The leaves were made with a Woodware embossing punch.
Simples!
