This is a replacement for Susie's wonderful card that died from a glue overdose. Her card was so pretty and took a lot of time, so I made an extra card because she deserves a tickle card for her efforts. Like my other MMTPT card, I stayed away from cooking for fear of unleashing food poisioning on the innocent people at the farmers' market. This is another craft project for the fair. I love this week's colors and liked making this card. The F4A called for brads, but not round ones. I always forget to use brads. If I made 6 cards a day and put brads on all of them, I could never use up my stash. This was the other half of the dylusion sprey paper I made for yesterday's card. Instead of splashing water on the bg, I dripped water with a teaspoon while holding the card vertical to get light drips down the paper. The flowers are colored with copics and fussy cut. The leaves are just circles cut in half. My non round brads are the flowers brads all over the card. I hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July. TFL, Francie

Fun flowers Francie... First thing I noticed was the drips... they are pretty cool.. We are finally getting some rain so the drips are a welcome site to see. This card makes me smile.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card Francie!! It is so bright and happy!! I love the way you dripped the water down the card and yet there are distinct areas for each color. What a fun and perfect way to use some of your brads. I also really like the white dots you used. Wonderful job Francie!!

Gorgeous card Francie, and so sweet of you to think of Susie (I'll be her card looked good even with her glue crisis). I have always liked those little flower brads -- love how you used them here.
