I've got a double challenge card here today (just not enough hours in the day!)
I'm coming in the back door to the Teaparty - bringing a very large sunflower (disguised as a daisy) with several daisies in the background (our teaparty card has to have at LEAST 3 daisies on it! - I am nothing if not a rule follower! LOL!!)
And I used today's sketch for my card.
This sweet little flower holding bear is Rhubarb a new digital image from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps that is being released on 7/17 but there are other versions of him available right now!
The teapot challenge destination this week is Rita who has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer. My card will be going postal to her up in Canada along with others who wish to send them in the hopes that they will bring a smile to her face and some comfort to her heart.

What a cute and uplifting card, Julia. I love your bear holding the "daisy". Your coloring is wonderful and the daisies in the bg are terrific. I'm sure your card will brighten rita's day.

What a cute card for Rita! Nice combination of challenges (I had to combine the sketch and color challenges m'self) Great color and texture, lots of positive energy for Rita, TFS.

Hi there Julia! You are here! I love your sundaisy! Tee hee! Hey, its teapot tuesday, what we say goes! You know the drill! What a great backdrop to your sweet little image! I love all the cuttlebugged layers....Its a wonderful card, as all yours are! Thanks so much for making this Rita's. It an awesome addition to her collection!
So sorry I was late to greet you! Tate sneezed and blew me back about 6 blocks and apparently the teapotters don't answer their cell phones and I had to hoof it all the way back! Giggle!

What a pretty sunflower your little bear is holding - you certainly can't tell it's wearing a disguise!! Beautiful card, Julia, and it will definitely cheer someone up on the receiving end!
