This is my card for today's sketch challenge. This is my story.
1. Would you like a card with your flower? This is one big, huge, ginormous, gargantuous flower.
2. I combined Monday's challenge with this challenge and tried one of those dahlia, iris, daisey, carnation flower folded thingys. I didn't have a smaller circle punch so I tried it with my SU scallop punch. It's definately different......
3. Of course I added more punched out circle scallops in the back of the flower cuz it wasn't big enough you know.
4. I used Basic Grey Two Scoops paper which I absolutely love....It is not double sided so I put all of those little polka dots on it with a marker. I have years and years of experience painting polka dots so it was no big deal!
If you would like to purchase some of this awesome paper you can do so here:

Cindy, you are a hoot and this is just precious. You should see my big ole mess. I tried using the giga scallop bc I did not have the SU scallop at the time. Now that I do I may have to try again. If I send you my dp will you put some polka dots on the reverse side for me.lol
