Teapotters Challenge presented by Pat/casep - Go for the Gold for fellow SCSer Ellen who is dealing with breast cancer and the devastating side effects of treatment. She likes pink & gold.
I was inspired by Jenn/Jennifranns teaparty card to look for what paper I might have that would fit the pink & gold challenge. Even though it is summery, I thought these tropical pink and shiny gold papers would be nice. I decorated an envelope with the scraps. You can see on the envelope how shiny the paper is! I punched some pineapples for confetti. A SCS friend, Dawn Mercedes sent me this summer paper pack for the birthday we share in August. What a wonderful, giving and inspiring community we have on SCS!
I embellished with some gold lined washi tape, a gold embossed sentiment on a banner and a pink flower & gem. My teenage DD thought my card was so cute; I hope Ellen does, too. TFL

I think the pineapples and tropical leaves are really fun, especially with the added pink flower. That's very classy looking paper. And look at the envelope! I know how much I enjoy receiving decorated envelopes...I really ought to put a little time into making them myself.
