This week the tea pot challenge is to bring something for a Garden. Preferably a vegetable-but I do not have a green thumb so I am going to bring this wheel barrow of pretty flowers to take the attention away from my poorly grown vegetables!
Recipe:
Spellbinders: Fleur De Lis Squares, Labels 18
Martha Stewart: Frond, Garden Gate Trim, and Swirling Lace PATP
Marvy Punch: Medium flower punch for Roses
Cuttlebug: Vintage Corner die, Rose Embossing Folder
Misc, Sage Distress Ink, Purple Rhinestones, Ribbon
Our Destination Station is Debbie in Oviedo Florida who needs a little cheering up. Come play with the tea potters gang this week. I know you will have fun!
This is an image from the Fred She Said Collection-it's pre-colored so you can make a fun and fast card.

I have to disagree... you DO have a green thumb! You grow the best paper gardens... they're always a profusion of floral beauty, and this one is no exception! Love all the details in this gorgeous creation, from the tendrils behind your roses, to the 'wrought iron' corners! Debbie will treasure this one!

Carol only *you* can make dirt look so good! You chose such a pretty image for a springboard to the rest of this garden of goodness. There is so much to love...the great colors, your punching & stitching, the layout, those gorgeous flowers, that light-as-air bow. This is just a total knockout, I'm running out of superlatives to describe your work. Thank you for sharing your phenomenal talent with us GF
