For this week's teaparty, we are jetting off to New York to help Aunt Sadie who is trying to win the Daisy awards this year. Seems her man is secretly destroying her flowers (and her dream). Our mission was to bring daisies.
I only have two stamps with daisies, and I am not even sure they are daisies! Sad, sad, sad - gardening is not one of my strengths.
I made this a sympathy card in honor of Mothermark, Roseanne, Cambria, and my step-sister - all of who lost someone they loved this week. It is also in honor of all those women who are in love with men who do really stupid things (like Aunt Sadie).
TFL - I promise to come back tonight and comment!

You did a perfectly fine job with the fingerpainting. What kind of man is this that would destroy pretty daisies? For sure, Aunt Sadie needs to give him a piece of her mind. LOL Your card is very pretty and a nice way to honor those named.

Nancy, such a touching image and so delicate. I love how varied your vision for art is! From crack-me-up crazy, to deep and meaningful. This is beautiful sis. LYMI
