I made this card for two challenges this week. The first challenge is for this week's Teapot Tuesday challenge. Pat is our hostess and she has chosen a wonderful theme called, "Showers of Flowers" for this week's recipient who could use some real encouragement right now.
The 2nd challenge is for this week's Alphabet Challenge for the letter G. The G's in this card are the Garden Green ink I used and the rose garden I created with these roses and trellis.
The flowers and leaves are stamped in 3 layers then die cut. The birch background was stamped in River Rock ink for a soft effect. Die cut the flowery trellis and assembled the card.
I really hope this week's cards help our recipient feel more hopeful and encouraged. Thank you Pat and Ann for the great challenges and thank you for looking! ~Karen.

That floral trellis is super-sweet, Karen. And the flowers are so pretty, I like your peachy/lemon colours. They are making me think of fresh fruit sorbets.
