There is only one down-side to this card. It is that even with using an Embossing Buddy, that it is really hard to get rid of the excess Flocking from your card (it sticks to everything, just like glitter LOL!)
I pre-cut my Pink Pirouette CS to be 6mm (1/4") smaller than my Whisper White base card and sponged the edges with Pretty in Pink ink. I rubbed the Pink Pirouette piece all over with the Embossing Buddy and stamped the Daisy's with Versamark ink. I covered them with Heat and Stick powder and gently melted it and then quickly covered that with the Black Flocking. I pressed the Flocking into the melted Heat and Stick, gently removed the excess and then gently reheated it to set it. I dyed my White Sheer Ribbon using the Pretty in Pink ink pad and then heat set it (but I still got ink on my fingers doing the bow, so it pays to dye the ribbon the night or day before you need it). I cut a piece of Basic Black CS to 2mm (1/16") smaller than the Pink Pirouette piece.
To make up the card I stuck my Pink Pirouette piece to the Basic Black piece. Then using my now Pretty in Pink ribbon and the Bow Easy I tied a bow over the very left daisy and stuck it to this piece. I then stuck this piece to the centre of the Whisper White base card. Finally, I stuck the Clear Rhinestones to the corners of the card.

This is lovely. I like the idea of the flocking. I bet it is fabulous IRL. The black and pink are striking colors. The ribbon and the rhinestones are great finishing touches also.
