Should I have phrased this differently?

Decided to dm this girl I met at church camp last week after I had a burst of confidence lol. Messaged another friend of mine and she said this was how I should start the conversation but now i’m wondering if it was kind of weird from the girl’s perspective because she unfollowed me. I’ll just copy and paste the convo.

Me -
Hey! This is “My name” from church camp i thought you were really beautiful and was wondering if you'd like to get to know each other?

Her -
Hi “My name”, thats very sweet of you but Im not really looking for a relationship at the moment. Thank you for reaching out and i hope you have a blessed week!

Me -
No worries! Thanks for being honest and hope you have a good week too!

She then just liked my last message. Maybe i’m overreacting but just wanna know how to approach it for future reference ykwim?
