I apologize for the picture quality - my computer has died and I have no editing ability.
I haven't been to a teaparty in ages, but this was one I could not miss. We are sending our cards to a sweet older lady who needs to be able to feel are cards as much as see them.
My colors aren't bold, but can someone pass me a cookie anyway?
Hugz - special ones to you Tonda!!!

You've created a beautiful and special card for the birthday lady! Your highly textured background is just perfect for Louise. The sentiment is so meaningful and the large font will enable Louise to read it easily. I love your sweet blossoms and lady bug and the design of your card. Thank you for adding joy to her 103rd birthday celebration with your lovely card!

Look at you. Showing up to the party with beautiful flowers and texture. Great card. So you were on time, welcome back. How about leaving the back door open girlfriend. I'm stuck in a traffic jam, but I'll be there...

Sis I just baked a fresh batch of cookies for you...hope you like them! How sweet of you to design this beauty for Louise. I love the look of the recycled cardboard panel all spiffed up in white...and Louise will love that texture. Your pretty glittered posies will bring a sparkle to her eyes as well. She is going to love this!! Thanks so much for coming to her birthday party. Sorry that I have been such a stranger on SCS but life is busy in many wonderful ways. Hugz from NJ, my friend.

Glad you made it and will send a cookie your way, esp. since I hear a fresh batch was just made. This has lots of texture and like the cardboard background and glitzy flowers---came out cute.

What a sweet card, Nancy! I love the distressed corrugated background, and your whimsical sparkly flowers are just so sweet. Sorry about your computer, frustrating I am sure, but the photo still looks good to me.
