The Tea Party took off for Fairport Harbor, OH this Tuesday and I wasn't able to get there on time, so I doubt there are any cookies left...let alone, tea. BUT I couldn't let it go by without making a card for Chip, the husband of Karen(redbugdriver). Karen is one of the sweetest gals here on SCS and her life has NOT been the sweetest lately. My card is late, but my good wishes are sincere and I hope Chip has a speedy recovery and their lives are sunny again.
Gail MacFadden suggested the site of HANDSCAPES GALLERY to Stef for this week's IC challenge. To be honest, I sought something that would work with the Tea Pot Party Challenge for Chip and the "fishing" theme. I found it in the Glass Gallery. THIS GLASS FISH in Scott Young's gallery fit the bill and I went from there.

I sure missed the boat by not turning on my computer yesterday! This is awesome Sallie and I'll personally see that you get cookies and tea!! What a wonderful inspiration and so cool that it went along w/ the teaparty this week. Chip will love this. He is just amazed when I walk into the rehad center w/ cards. He will like this one. Your fish is awesome on the perfect striped b/g. Thank you for thinking of him. Late just keeps the fun going on and on.
