Today's Tea Party is for the organization "Send a Smile Today" for sending cards to people battling cancer. Lisa is our hostess and has challenged us to use the letters in the word CHEER for our card elements. My C is the Color Challenge, H is for Heat Embossing, and another E for dry Embossing, R is for the roses in the bouquet. I had the perfect stamp for my sentiment which I repeated and embossed. Sponged over with Wild Honey, which I thought was a pretty good match for Mango Melody. I printed this STAMPlorations digi and colored with SN and Copic Markers with pretty good matches to the colors that Chris chose. I hope it brings a smile to whoever it goes to.

Love how you created the honey panel with the embossing. It is the perfect stamp for the cute bouquet. Love the colors and I agree with Chris that focusing on the yellow really makes it bright and cheery. Smile getter for sure.

Yellow is such a cheery color and this sweet card will do just that . . .cheer someone up. The repeated embossed sentiment makes a great background too!

You did indeed have the most perfect sentiment stamp, Jen, and it makes a super background. That's something I must try. Color Combination was a very clever choice for C, too, well done you.
