This is my card for Mary (Petal Pusher) who is today's featured stamper! Congratulations Mary! Your gallery is a garden of wonderful cards which continues to grow and grow!
1. I knew this twill I bought that says How does your garden grow would come in handy! Woot!
2. The only thing contrary about today was I the little chipboard flower centers that I kept dropping on the floor! They were being quite contrary by getting lost after I dropped them. I now have about 4 unfinished chipboard flowers that are missing their centers cuz I kept having to steal them to replace the ones I dropped!
3. I used acrylic paint to paint the chipboard and I used the head of a straight pin (one of the ones with little colored balls on them) to paint the polka dots. It worked great because it made different sized polka dots which was fun!
4. I changed everthing but the layout and I changed the size and shape of Mary's little tin.
I used Maya Road chipboard flowers that come in this awesome tin when you purchase them. You can get both the Basic Grey Mellow paper and the chipboard flowers here:

Dear Cindy: Now it's my turn to get a little teary. This is gorgeous and already popped into my favorites. Love your polka dots. You were so encouraging to me last fall when I decided to kickstart my stamp habit. This is a moving tribute. I adore my SCS friends. Thanks for playing and all your support.
