I LOVED today's Sketch Challenge! I didn't think I was going to get a chance to make a card today, but somehow I was able to work it in!
I think I found a new color combo I absolutely LOVE! Kiwi Kiss and Elegant Eggplant! Awesome~
While I was in NY last month I was able to spend a couple of hours crafting with a friend of mine, Patrice, who showed me a video of someone making pansies with Stampin' Up's! butterfly punch. I knew when I came back to OH that I had to give it a try! I couldn't find the exact video that she showed me, but I had found another site that showed me how to make them:
Can't wait to make some more cards using this technique!
Looks like I can add this card into the Teapot Tuesday Challenge, too! (Thanks Joanne!)
Since Darla the Dragonfly wants to show her daughter, Dingle Bell Berry, all the beautiful flowers and plants that our beautiful Earth has to offer... I thought Pansies were a must see!
(Is this the right way to do the Teapot Tues. Challenge? Sorry it's my first time for a Teapot Tuesday Challenge!)
Hope you like my card!

So so pretty.... great color contrast ...delicately dramatic! Wait until Patrice receives this card. I know there will be many "missing you tears"! Especially the bond these pansies has now brought to you both. Seeing this card makes me want to buy and plant some panies to enjoy all summer long. Thank you for such prettiness!

You know Jenna, you can do the teapot anyway you want. We are just glad to have a new member. Remember though, you are now part of an elite group of total nuts. Are you up for that! LOL
Your card is sooo pretty, really, Darla will have some time with Dingle Belle Berry and all of us teapotters.

Jenna this is fabulous~love the pansy! I love kiwi kiss! I wish they would have brought this color back instead of Wild Wasabi! And the elegant eggplant and Kiki Kiss are perfect together! Love the ribbon treatment! A wonderful card! TFS
