Well if there was ever going to be a week that I missed the Tea Party, this would have been the week! My 3.5 y/o son broke his collar bone over the weekend, my husband got sick and ended up in the ER... it's been a rough week! Thankfully, everyone is OK! That is the good news.. the bad news... I am late to the tea party! Yikes!
My little kitty cats are trying so hard to get into the kitchen and whip up something special.. they are so late, they haven't been even able to visit all the other tea partiers to see what they made/brought to the tea party, nor what they have had to say this week.... Good thing the party was local this week, can't imagine how late we would have been if we had to travel!

OMG! Maureen! Holy cow! This will be a week you will remember for sure! I was wondering about you after your email, hoping that you did not end up BACK in ER after you got home. Hope all is well now, or at least on the mend! Thats gonna be tough keeping a 3.5 year old down to mend that collar bone, but you know what they say, boys will be boys! Probably won't be the last injury! Yikes!
Your card is so precious and I am so happy you were able to come despite your week. I love your little kitties on their clouds and the texture you added to back piece is awesome! How fun with a little hint of sparkle! Once your kitties get in the kitchen they might wanna get out even worse! Its getting ugly in there....lots of attitude and everyone one is jealous of the others chef hat. Enter at your own risk! Giggle!
Thanks for being so determined to get here! I love that you made it! Now, sit down relax. Yeah, sure....you can use the phone to call home to see how everyone is doing...follow me, its this way! Snort!

What a stressful time for your family ... I am so sorry your men have been damaged. But pleased to know that they are mending! I agree with Brat that it is wonderful that you got to eek in some stamp time. Darling card ... fabulously warm colors and details!

Your cats should have a roaring great time at the party. So sorry to hear about your guys! One can see that you needed some time to yourself to create! And what a wonderful result! Love it!

Your card is certainly decked out with all those shiny dots - I just love it.
Hope this next week goes so much better for you. Those bad weeks at least let you recognize the good ones better. By the way, I was much later to the party than you and I didn't even have an excuse!
