Congrats to Susan aka One4Joy for becoming our newest Queen. While strolling through her gallery last night I came across this card.
I knew I wanted to make a card for the MMTPT131 Mother's teapot challenge this week that was on the lighter side. Cindy's niece Shari is battling breast cancer. They also have a new white scotty puppy (Nessie) in their lives that is keeping them busy and is a wonderful distraction. Susan's card was perfect and gave me a fabulous idea. I hunted the internet for an image of a scotty dog. It was perfect, plus it had the bow and so did Susan's card. I finished it last night but was way to tired to upload. I knew I shouldn't have started so late, because once the idea came it was to late to turn back. So here I am this morning with my Sweet Nessie card.
Weather should be good today, so I hope to get my teapot cards in the mail and off to Shari in Colorado.
Thanks for looking

Irene, this is simply adorable! love the wow colors and that fussy bow. The pretty scallops at the bottom and that special fold make this one stellar card. Thank you for playing in my gallery today.
Blessings
Susan

Irene, I dont think I've seen a card even close to one like this from you in such a long time. How very sweet to add Nessie to your card. Sharri will love to have this one on her mantle. Your kindness for others is heartwarming, Irene. BTW, this is an incredible recreation of Susan's wonderful card.
