I always say it takes several challenges to inspire a card for me. Several of this weeks challenges inspired this card for the Alpha Challenge for V.
V for Violet (Copic color)
V for Vilolets (the bear is holding)
V for Very Vanilla
V for Valley as in Lili of the Valley stamp set
The sketch challenge worked great for this LOTV stamp set.
The CAS challenge was to use something new, the stamp set is new, I even had to cut it and mount it! ;)
The Ways to use it challenged us to use something
New: stamps
Old: paper and rub on sentiment
Borrowed the sketch
Blue the butterfly
Thank you hostesses and thank you for looking.

Oh Sharon, this card is simply "too cute" with this adorable little bear and his handful of violet posies. Could it be that he is a little shy? So sweet. I love the beautiful papers you used here too. What a fantastic card for all of the challenges! Hugs! ~Karen.

Very, very pretty! Love the bears with the violets and the out-of-the-box technique with each circle. Fabulous use of the sketch. The paper is lovely. Wonderful card for Letter V and great job with all the challenges! TFS
