Yes, I have been sponging a lot lately. That was one of the things I wanted to work on this year and I've enjoyed doing it so much, I can hardly stop. Plus, I like the fact that it makes my image pop. I'll have a card posted tomorrow with NO sponging. But, believe me, that image will need nothing to help it pop.:-) If you don't like orange, look away. Ha

Oh So Pretty! I really like your layering and of course your coloring is superb. I've been trying to learn how to sponge my backgrounds but so far haven't liked my results. I will keep trying till I get it right.
Blessings Bernie

Ohhh gorgeous card Brenda! I can see why pansies are one of your favourites with their lovely faces and they last for ages - we've a pot on our picnic table that were planted at the end of April and are still going strong!
STUNNING!!~
This is gorgeous with those pretty pansies and that fabulous punched border against the purple background! One of your very best me thinks :)
Just beautiful! I love pansies too and you did a fab job with the coloring and sponging. Thanks for playing at FTTC. :)
Yes, it is super duper hot here too. It is almost 8pm and it is still 109 heat index. Yuck!
BEAUTIFUL..The white punched edges really pop on the purple and make a wonderful frame for the pretty pansies!

Wow, wow, WOW! Those pansies are GORGEOUS and the yellow background sets them off beautifully!
Pretty pansies! You are the queen of using Spellbinders perfectly! Love how you use them on your cards! I need to get more decorative ones ... they had so much to your cards. Thanks for the inspiration!

Lovely card, your pansies are beautifully coloured and that sponging is a great effect! Thanks for joining in with us at Anything Goes, K x
I do love purple, so these pansies are catching my eye. I wish we lived closer, and I could've lent you my "Thank You" Flourishes set, which has a very pretty tulip.
