I chose an old stamp set, Delight in Life, since it had this little flower. I tried the No Score Modern Grid technique for the Technique Challenge or TLC806.
Also, since this is for the teapot challenge, I used a purple, Dusty Concord Distress Marker to make the grid. Our recipient this week likes purple. I used the Misti to stamp the flowers in Lavender Lace, then turned the stamp a little and stamped again in Pixie Pink. For silly animals I did purple dogs and cats. I also die cut the Thinking of You and stacked a couple so it would stand out, that idea suggested by Ann on our Alpha Sister Zoom Chat & Craft. Love to exchange ideas like that. And we even got some good tips from each other. Sister Gracie suggested using my Zig glue pen when I said I get adhesive all over me when working with these little dies. Why didn't I think of that as the pen sits right there in front of me? Thank you Alphas!
Thanks for looking..

Oh Sharon! Now that I can see this closer up I love it even more. It turned out really great. I love the cats and dogs. The dog has such a sweet expression. I still have to do my grid card. Did get my speech bubble in with this one though. See you again soon, I hope.

Another great card and I couldn’t see it well on the chat. Looks so good and now you’ve motivated me to give the grid challenge a go. TFS. Happy day

Adorable - I feel like I'm peering out my my grandmother's big picture window to catch a bit of the activity outside. You did a super job stacking your sentiment.

Fun card with adorable pets images. I really like the double stamping on the flowers and the touch of glitter. I agree with Linda, it's like I'm looking through a big window into someone's home. Wonderful card and great job on the grid.
