It's TeaPot Tuesday, and the destination this week is Loveland, Colorado home of Cindy's niece Shari, who was diagnosed with breast cancer the week before Christmas. Life is not a bowl of cherries for Shari and her family, but we're hoping that a mailbox full of cards will help to brighten her days.
To make it resemble the teapot, I added some stripes and scallops to the bowl, then colored the image with Copics. The flowers and leaves were stamped then cut out and popped with glue dots around the image panel.

Another beautiful card. The way you decorated the bowl makes it look like it's part of the tea set.. Love the pretty heart in the center. Your cherry blossoms are so pretty along with that striking red bow.
