This is going out to our own Carlene (Chatterbox-1) who is recovering from surgery. She is such a ray of sunshine to all of us here on SCS. I hope she likes this teaparty in her honor. Went with a vintage design using a floral image and framed with my new favorite Marianne die that has some wonderful embossing on it. The dp is also a fav and I believe this is my last piece of it ;( I know Carlene likes ribbon (extra points?) so I included that.

That basket of flowers certainly is cheery and cheering - and with a lovely vintage feel - that wickerwork basket and the little gold scrap bow. I think you deserve bonus points not just for the ribbon but for sending out the last hoarded piece of that beautiful paper.
