This card is for Abby. My heart goes out to this young lady that has enduredand will endure cancer/chemo treatments due to what is called Wilms tumor.
What a wonderful choice for the Tea Party destination.
This was an easy card. Sorry, but I don't have any shoe stamps or other girly stamps, so this flower will have to do. It's made with the peony die and suede paper. An MS punch around was used for part of the edging, and a Rhonna Farrar flourish for the little bit of stamping. The leaves are a wonderful faux suede, so there's a lot of texture going on here.
The main thing, it's a pretty girly card that will hopefully put a smile on Abby's face.
After I get done here, I'm off to the PO to mail out the cards for Dellsdani musical challenge and this card. I'll be back later to comment on all the wonderful cards in this gallery.

Oh, how it warms my heart to see your mom posting the first comment on your lovely card! Tee hee! That is the coolest! Hey, no worries about having girley girl stamps....you sure came up with a girley girl flower! I have seen Bree where this exact type of flower on her hats, on her shoes, attached to her purse, on her jacket lapels, etc. etc. Yep, flowers are da bomb! This will bring a smile to be sure! Thanks Jennifer for playing along and sending this card to the destination!

This is just breathtaking! Love the multicolored bg, it's beautiful and sets off the whole tone of the card. Your peony is wonderful using the suede paper, it really gives it a rich look! Your sentiment in the corner is so true, TFS

How could this not bring a smile to Abby - your big blue flower is totally gorgeous, and the soft swirly background is very pretty and feminine. Beautiful...

The richness of this whole card is just awesome. At first I thought the flower was felt...better than that. Faux suede; looks like another attempt for me to make a flower since I've seen this.
