This card is for Mothermark's Tuesday Teapot challenge. Teapot Tuesday #18 The Card and the Teapot by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
Gerry Gardener I am not but even I know the purple flower on my card is not a pansy but I did keep the color scheme of the challenge. Last week I was so late to the tea party Cindy told me everyone was really wired from drinking all that tea. This week I am only one day late so everyone should feel less jittery!

Snort! You are right, we are just now beginning to feel that jitter! Yeah! You could come to the party earlier this week! Whoo Hoo!
This is a wonderful card...Gerry Gardener I am not either but we both managed some gardening on our cards didn't we! Your card is beautiful, love the little hint of sparkle on your flower petals. My untrained gardener eye tells me that is a pansey!! Love the sentiment in the corner. Very nicely done Marilyn!
Thanks for coming....and thanks for the link! We are thinking about drinking hot chocolate and coffee next week cuz some of the girls are cold but we will still call it a tea party! Okay with you??? Giggle!

Well since noone else is a master gardner, myself included, I will agree with your title that it is not a pansy, but it is beautiful. I love how you added the stickles to your rose and whatever kind of purple flower that it is!!! Turning the corner back and adding the bow and pearl is very eye catching.

This is terrific. I loved this teapot. I looked through all my images but sadly had none to join the party. I am not good with flowers. Imagine that. I can grow them I just can't stamp them. Great job. TFS

So I see that you have a new pansy hybrid - good for you! The deer ate all mine so I don't have one on my challenge card! This is just lovely - a wonderful teapot card.
