Pansies to Cheer You - and Remind You - Jan's Challenge

Just a reminder that we're still having our challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps and would love for you to stop by, enter your Anything Goes project, and have a chance to be a winner!

I used one of Jan's brand new to the shop stamps called Pansies for Mom.   Beautiful pansies (and my very favorite flower too)!  I used a pre-colored image because they're always SO pretty.  I also used a couple of pieces of some lavender paper, ribbon, and clear gems.  The green piece of patterned paper behind the image is really, really, really looking washed out!  UGH!  What can I say.  In real life though it's actually pretty.  Um......Ribbon is looking a little saggy too.   What can I say!  Use your imagination!!!

Stop by the challenge blog and enter your card or project.  You will have plenty of time as the challenge won't end until the end of the month.

Thanks for stopping by...........

A lovely card Lynn - don't you just hate it when the camera lies! Loving that image and how you have used it, and the background looks great with the green and lavender.
Stay safe

Oh Lynn, you are way toooooo harsh on yourself. The ribbon and green paper add so much softness and charm to the jug of flowers. It is good they are quiet because the fowers get to stand out. The image is just so pretty. Honestly, this card is awesome.

Hope you are keeping well,

To cheer indeed - this is so elegant and beautifully colored! What a perfect balance of card design and yet your image just POPS! Superb!

I think the pastel green paper and the sheer bow are wonderful, Lynn! Don't be too hard on yourself, my friend. :-D The clear gems are a fabulous embellishment. They look just like little droplets of water left after an April shower. Perfect.

Your saggy, washed out card looks pretty good to me. I really like the lavender and purple panels. Pansies are so hardy and I love the varigated colors.

I think everything looks amazing! The green isn't washed out, nor is the bow saggy :-). Love how you've added the second image at the bottom of the pitcher.
