Our teaparty this week is for a much treasured SCS member and a dear friend to all, Kathleen Lammie. As we ALL know, Kathleen is a warm hearted, kind and generous person. Kathleen is having some serious health issues so let us hope all these cards can bring her some joy.
Kathleen sent me this gorgeous sunflower stamp so it was the obvious choice of flower for me to use. I coloured with copics, fussy cut, added glossy accents and, once dry, popped up on the oval die, using dimensionals. Whist c/s was still in die, I sponged the antique linen.
The message inside reads: "While your body regains strength, let our love help sustain your spirit".
My thoughts are with you, Kathleen, for a healthier future

Sue, I love the mix of patterns you used, and the bright cheerful colors, but the fact you used an image that Kathleen sent you makes this so special. She is going to treasure this for sure.

Hello my friend! Thank you so much for sending your very HAPPY card! Sunflowers have to be my favorite flower, they just make me smile! I had forgotten I sent that stamp to you, so it made me extra happy when I read that in your description Thank you VERY much for the wonderful sentiment on the inside. I have not got the go ahead yet for the active lung transplant list (I still have more tests to complete) but hopefully it will be in God's perfect timing! Thanks again my friend!!!
