Betsy's Blossoms Twinchies card

A while ago I made lots of Twinchies, (but I seem to have gotten out of the habit of late!) must start doing them again - I really enjoyed it.  I decided to do something with them, so today,
I made this card for my friend's birthday.

Before

The colour combo is Very Vanilla and Early Espresso,
and the stamp set used to make the Twinchie was Betsy's Blossoms. 
The sentiment was from Teeny Tiny Wishes -g
 but can you see I was a little heavy handed and the first "friend" is blurred.
So I used the matching wheel- Betsy's Blooms to stamp a border
in Versamark, then heat embossed with white embossing powder.
Et voila!  A complete disguise don't you think?

after
I am really pleased with this - now where did I put the rest of my Twinchies?
