4 You - UDI Color Challenge #25

A lot of colors to be used in this challenge:  Rich Razzelberry, Perfect Plum, So Saffron, Tempting Turquoise, and Basic Gray - Utah Divas International Color Challenge #25 here .  I immediately thought of flowers, birds, butterflies, and decided on pansies. Here is my card:

Stamp: Tiny Tags
Inks: Rich Razzelberry, Markers - Rich Razzelberry, So Saffron, Perfect Plum, Tempting Turquoise, Stampin Writer (black), Basic Gray
Papers: Rich Razzelberry, Very Vanilla, Tempting Turquoise, Shimmery White, Daffodil Delight (can you believe I didn't use So Saffron???)
Accessories: Square Lattice embossing folder, Framed Tulips embossing folder, Scallop edge border punch, Butterfly Punch, Two Step Bird Punch, Jewellry Tag Punch, 5/8" Basic Gray satin ribbon, Vintage brads (black), Stampin dimensionals, Linen Thread

Pansies were made using Butterfly Punch, using Shimmery White card stock.  Punch out 2 for each pansie.  Then color with markers, spritz with water, crumple up, staighten out and let dry.  When dry, put in markings with Stampin Writer, curl up ends with handle of a paint brush or stylus.  Place one flower petal on top of the other, pierce a hole in the middle and insert a brad.  That's your pansy.
