I have been working for hours on two putzy cards, but I'm happy with the results. This was putzy because I don't think ahead enough to use double sided sticky paper on all diecuts.
This is for this week's colors, the teaparty for Tricia and today's sketch, very loosely. I smooshed and painted the gorgeous grape and pacific point, very watered down for the background and then much stronger for the flowers. I wanted some dimension to the flowers so I just glued down the inside edges. Used gel pens for the centers and some Liquid Pearls for a white accent. The green leaves were cut from some white cs that I sponged the pear pizzaz on. By then I was smart enough to add some sticky paper to the back. I do have six elements on the card for the sketch.

Those blue flowers have so much depth of color. I love the way they look against your gorgeous bg as well as the combo of open and solid images. I know what you mean about "forgetting the double sided tape". I usually think of that afterwards too. LOL. Beautiful card. I'm sure as a card maker, Tricia will appreciate all the "putzing" that went into creating this beauty.

Thank you for participating in the teapot challenge for Tricia, she is going to be totally surprised when she sees all the cards created on her behalf! TFS
