This card is for my daughter Alix who is adjusting to a new life in new digs. Alix and her little dog Dexter moved into their new apartment last Saturday and this is for a house warming.
The teapot is a Flourishes stamp stamped on silver foil with Stazon. The flowers are popped up with rhinestones in the centres. We were to use silver, black, and pink for this challenge.

Elizabeth,
What a beautiful and elegant card for Alix! I love the silver - so very pretty. I hope she will enjoy all of her cards. I took a bit of a different route with my card - now I'm wondering if I should make something else.

Wow, Elizabeth!! What a beauty this is - captures all the essence of femininity and grace in the face of stormy times! If she is anything like her Mom, she will come through all this stronger for the testing. Your card will be a comfort !!
