I'm on my way to Mothermark's tea party and I am personally delivering these daisies, into the hands of the judges, as I must keep them away from the blubbering Mr. Pluckapetal! Can you believe that I saw him one night suspiciously wondering through Sadie's magnificent gardens!!? So being the nosy, um, I mean caring, neighbor, that I am, I followed him and found to my horror that he was plucking the petals of every daisy he laid eyes on...apparently he wasn't getting the "I love you" answer he wanted from that final petal! Well I'll tell you that once Sir blubbering Pluckapetal fell asleep in a heap, in the middle of the daisies, I did some plucking of my own!
SHHHH... I just know Ms. Sadie will be ever so grateful that I saved her beautiful daisies from the clutches of Pluckapetal! I transplanted her beauties into my own (once very sad and bare) garden!! Don't worry...I plan on telling her as soon as my (her) lovely daisies have won ME the prestigious DAISY GARDENING TITLE!!
Humph, now don't go get up on your high horse about scruples...after all...Mothermark herself said that even Sadie my lady is a tad shady!! All is fair in love and GARDENING!
Thanks for looking and listening to my side of the story...
I've met two other challenges in this card as well; the color challenge and the sketch challenge for today.

Bwahaha! You go girl! Psst....I won't tell Sadie...although I so late getting here that the judges are probably on to the Tiptoe through the Tulip contest! Do you do tulips? No matter if you do or don't you do daisies well! What an awesome card...your coloring is so soft and subtle....lovely little daisies! So there Sir Pluckapetal! Take that!
I loved your card....and your story....I think all the teapotters are a tad shady! Snort!
