Today the Teapotters are making cards for fellow Teapotter Kathleen (Kathleen Lammie.) She has been living with LAM (lung disease) for some time and is now in need of transplants. We are sending cards to encourage her, cheer her and to surround her with "sisterly" love, hope and faith.
I stamped my background in multiple SU pink shades. I stamped and watercolored the flowers and with bright-colored watercolor pencils, glaze pens, glitter glaze pens, Wink of Stella glitter brush, and finished the card with some sparkly twine. The verse inside reads:
Faith sees the invisible,
believes the unbelievable
and receives the impossible. (Corrie Ten Boom)
I am praying that God will continue to be with Kathleen every step of her journey and that all of her needs will successfully be met.
Thank you for looking.

what happy colorful flowers! It reminds me of the gorgeous linen tablecloths my neighbor brings to me from Italy. Great colors with a sense of style just like your beautiful card.

What an amazing background, Gabby! It makes a beautiful setting for those flowers which look so dainty and delicate and I'm sure that in real life they look even more amazing with all the sparkle and textures you've added. The smaller yellow ones are so pretty!
