Teacup Pansies

For some reason I thought this was one of the February flowers but apparently it’s not since it is a Pansy and not a violet. But it’s purple! Any who a lady needed a birthday card for her friend whose birthday is on Valentine’s Day. Decided to not go Valentine theme like a did a couple years ago. She likes flowers so thought it would work for a February Birthday. I added pearls to the cup so I decided to add pearls to the corners….not sure I like them….will look at it in the morning again!

Three different cards from one digital image

I had a request for a birthday card for a lady that loves flowers and lives in Florida. I sent the customer some images and she liked Fred, She Said Designs – watercolor floral corner stamp.

So I found 2 cards and a sketch that inspired me so I decided to make all three and let her pick which one she wanted. Which also fit the Oct Inspirational Card Challenge – Bonus category which was to make at least 2 different cards with the same image….I made 3. I also used one of the sketches from Jillibean Soup’s Blog that they had posted for World Card Making Day. I didn’t use any Jillibean Soup product so I won’t enter it into the challenge but it still inspired my card!

*Note: this image was water colored by the artist and sold as a pre-colored digi! Which is great for us who can’t color well at all!!*

Out of the three cards she picked this one!
