It's time for another Teapot Tuesday challenge. This week we are bringing Brenda some happy mail. Here is the link to the teaparty. We are to bring flowers and butterflies to the party.
This is also for this weeks featured stamper challenge. Carolina Little (cajojus) is this weeks FS. I loved looking through Carolina's beautiful gallery, This beautiful card inspired me. I used the same flower stamp from "Elements of Life", I bleached out the flowers. Sentiment is from Upsy Daisy set.
Thanks for looking,
Hugs - Pat

Ms Pat, had you on my mind today, as I "wandered" in my stitching. I always smile to think of you, and here you are, being fabulous again! Stunning blooms my friend! Love the dimension, color, and of course, the stitching. Hugs x2 sweet friend!

Pat and lovely soft card for Brenda. Love the earth tone of the Kraft with the pretty flowers and tiny butterfly in cream. The meandering stitched frame finishes it off beautifully.

Oh Pat...what I am going to say might make you smile. I saw this stitching on this pretty card just as I was opening it to see it better , and before I knew whose it was for sure, I was thinking " Man..I Still gotta get out my machine and try this stitch like the 2 Pats ( you and Pat Smethers ) do and I keep not, and again I see its beauty and was thinking that, and looked at who made this card and then chuckled to myself, so funny. LOVe it. so soft and pretty and that "Pat " stitching borders it so well....TFS..have a super day..:0)
