Hello Again,
After about 20+ pictures taken and cropped, here is my entry to The Flower Challenge #107. * Whew!
I really love any shade/hue of purple but do not have a lot of ink pads. Found a little one by Memories Direct in my stash and used it with a stencil. This stencil is from Uniko called Pure Florals Gerbera. It is still available on their website.
Here is my card...is it Purple enough for this October flower challege? I like the card. You?
Using the same ink, I then stamped my sentiment right next to the flower. Oops, crooked. So I stamped again on a snippet of white die cut using an oval punch. The sentiment is from the retired SU set called Love & Sympathy. I think purple is a good color for sympanthy cards.
Lastly, I added a little gem found in my drawer of bling. Can you believe I have a whole drawer of bling from many different companies? True story.
Inside is a 4 x 5-1/2 piece of white c.s. ready for a note. Am hopeful I will not need to send the card soon.
Because I used a snippet of paper for the sympathy greeting, I am adding the card to the Snippets Playground #516. I haven't played there in a very long time.
That is it from me for now. Take care of yourselves and happy crafting. It is a rainy Autumn day here, so was perfect for making a card.
*Edited to say I notice my card at Flower Challenge is sideways but I haven't found a way to fix that. Maye they will help me, I asked.
Thank you for visiting and I hope you will come by again.

Hi Jeanne . . . lovely to see you in the Snippets Playground again and with a lovely floral card.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse shortly, where I'll make you a nice hot chocolate with extra marshmallows. xxx
Hello, Jeanne! Little did I know that Uniko made a stencil of their lovely Gerbera Daisy - you know I've had their stamps and dies for years and remain among my favorites!
I'm so happy you had a little purple in your stash - it can be a happy or somber color. Perhaps it will lift the spirits of the person who received your lovely card.
Thanks so much for joining us at The Flower Challenge's purple color challenge! x

Hello Jeanne! We missed you in The Playground - welcome back. You used one of my very favourite Uniko Designs - the Gerbera. I too have a feeling I don't have the stencil, much like Michele above. Lovely result!
Hugs
