For the teapotters challenge: Sue chose a wonderful theme of casing the cover of a book or be inspired by it. The book is called Only Love Today, by Rachel Macy Stafford. I always have lots of inspirational books on the go. This one is a keeper, so encouraging and helpful. Just started reading it, and I highly recommend it. Makes you take a deep breath and relax!
Used a sponged piece from my stash and added lots of different hearts. I love hearts, lol. Punched 3 of the modern label for the sentiment, everything just glued down. tfl

This is so pretty Shirl. The sponged piece is so pretty and really showcases all of these pretty hearts giving this card a real heartwarming feel to it. The black sentiment label with the white-embossed sentiment pops so nicely on this card and ties it all together beautifully. ~Karen.

A girl can never have too many hearts in her life and I love the variety of shapes , sizes and colors you used here to grace the front of this heart-lifting card.
