Hi everyone, I am late for my IC today, but am so happy to share it with you because it was made with quite some inspiration from Pat Smethers, we talk on the phone every saturday morning, so while I was talking to her, I told her I was making a card for Herlinda, Tater's mom, she has undergone her last radiation treatment this week and I wanted to send some love to her. Funny, because it started with these beautiful blue fishies :
Stephanie seems to have found another awesome place for us to play again, with Dara's help, thanks Dara, this is a cool place. So with all that was shared in our conversation, I lost the fish and went with this wild tulip from Flourishes. Thank you girls for all the inspiration!
And more, I did the TSC with this so sweet Bella in Deb's gallery:
Deb, I know it's been awhile since we talked but I know you know I love you. You are a dear heart.
Used Deborah's (Debzi333) papers, and Sue's (coffeestamper) pleated ribbon, you saved my life!
Thanks for looking and enjoy.
NOTE: In all I had to say about this card, in my excitement forgot to mention that the cluster of beads idea was taken from one of my favourite stampers here Anne Ryan. Sorry, I forgot, but now I'm righting the wrong. (smile) I know Anne wouldn't say anything about it, being the elegant and classy lady she is!

How great to choose fish vases as great inspiration for the beautiful blue card - it will be a lovely RAK to receive - blue is a soothing, positive colour. Well, those soft pretty shades you have used are.
