Imagine the beach and a trip to the sand
With a dear friend holding you by the hand
Just dream you could be right down by the waves
And lie on a towel like a pair of sun slaves
Feel the squish of the sand as it goes through your toes
And the scent of the salt and the sea in your nose
Just pretend that this day is a day to relax
Not think of the bills or the bank or the tax
Forget any pain and forget all your woes
Cuz when I want to relax to the beaches I goes!
This card is specially for my dear friend Elaine who has never been but would love to be at a beach.

What a great card for your friend Elaine, Cat! And your poem is touching, heart warming. How nice of you to honor her and help her get through a tough time!
I love your palm tree, the leaves are genius! Its beautifully done and a labor of love! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to do this for a fellow teapotter!

Fantastic take on the teapot Cat. Love the beach scene you created for Elaine... your distressed background is fabulous, and the sun and palm tree are so creative. Perfect sentiment to go with your sweet poem.
