Unbounded Zinnias

So yesterday, the hubs and I were in my craft room which also doubles as the computer gaming room because it's where hubs has his laptop, and I said, "Hummingbird, zinnias, or lavender?" and he was very confused.  But he chose zinnias and that's what's on my card today:


Do zinnias come in shades of purple?  Doesn't matter, because in my craft room they do!  I did the plant side of the Paper Players theme challenge:


I already have an animal card made so that will be tomorrow : )  I had to post this one first because I wanted to make sure I could enter at the Just Add Ink color challenge:


I used all three colors of purple/berry to color the zinnias and Shaded Spruce for the stems.  The card base is Fresh Freesia, the scrap of Unbounded Beauty DSP is Petunia Pop, and the "thanks" sentiment is stamped in Berry Burst.  I know I'll need some thank you cards coming up here with people helping out around the hubs' surgery tomorrow.

It's about time to get Ryan in the car and off to school.  Cheers, y'all!
