I stamped & embossed the white dots on the blue & coral dots on the white cardstock, stamped & embossed the floral border, added yellow brads for the flower centers, & the ribbon bow is held in place with a blue flower brad. Can you see the similarity to the featured teapot? The inside sentiment says, “You deserve a break today”. I made 2 cards, one for each of 2 friends caring for a family member diagnosed with Alzheimers.

OMG! Vicky! This looks just like the teapot! I am loving seeing all the cards in the gallery already this morning. They have such cuteness about them. I am tickled that you are able to honor some friends who are caregivers. Its nice when you have a connection to the people you are sending your cards too...they will be a bright spot in their day.....

Vicky~ When cards are for a specific purpose, the care shines out and what you have done for your friends is beautiful! This is full of 'heart'. I love what you have done! Hugs....

I couldn't see this the last time I was checking the gallery - I'm glad that it's reappeared because it's certainly worth seeing. Your floral band is lovely, and I am admiring your home-spotted papers underneath it.
