CT1218 - This fits the central theme with the Silica Gel. It was in a box from a purchase and it says do not eat. Well I wondered for a very long time if it would work for flower centers and so I started saving some and finally tried it and it turned out GREAT!!!
DINSP1218 - I was inspired by the antique tea pot.
Stamped the sentiment and left in the die cut. Sponged the pink. Cut the layers and layered pink behind the teapot and cup. Grabbed some left over flowers that I punched from scrap papers and shaped. The Silica gel was put in a plastic cup and gold reinker was added. Put a top on it and shook it up. Viola gold flower centers.

Great idea to color silica gel and use as flower centers for your beautiful card. I reuse these little packets to dry flowers!
Your card is gorgeous with the vintage DP and enchanting tea set!

Ha, ha! When I first saw your card Lisa I thought, 'wow Mom would love this', and didn't recognize that it was for the MMTPT challenge. Thank you so much - this is perfect!
