This is about as late an arrival at the teaparty as you can get! I made this for Chip, Karen's husband (redbugdriver) who was the recipient of tea party cards several weeks ago - I hope Chip won't mind getting this late and I hope he's feeling much better by this stage. He's interested in fishing and refereeing and Mothermark had everyone creating in black and white stripes - mine are in the twine. I made a CAS card but it felt a bit flat and it was today's Ways to Use It challenge that made me think of adding leaves to give some dimension - and then that led to clouds - you know how it goes!

Aw, so sweet. I can bet Chip won't mind this being late! The greenery is just what you'd expect to find growing by the river bank to provide shade for fishermen.

I know that Chip will appreciate this as he still has a long haul! Absolutely adorable. Love the twine and you you achieved the dimension on the leaves.

Aww...how wonderful that you made a point of getting a card done for Chip..(and Karen).....it is absolutely precious...and no worries about being late, the cool thing is, it spreads the cards out even longer! Whoo hoo! I love that you got the black and white stripes on in the form of the twine! I love this happy little card and you know Chip will too! Really, really warm and fuzzy!
