I am so far behind on my challenges, but I'm not giving up on my New Year's resolution to do every challenge this year. And being behind is OK, because I love to combine challenges--it really gets my creative juices flowing. This is primarily a Teapot Tuesday card for Theresa to send her our love and support. Polly is our hostess and she has challenged us to use two of something on our card. I started thinking hearts and flowers right away for the hearts and flowers F4A that I missed and for the non-traditional colors valentine CAS challenge that I missed. I'm not sure how non-traditional these are, but there is not pink or red. I'm also not sure how CAS this is, but I did leave quite a bit of white space. The colors are Chris's color challenge colors and I even got dry embossing for dessert. The image I chose is a STAMPlorations digi that I find quite warm and cozy for Polly's WT Challenge that I missed. And last but not least, because I have markers and Wink of Stella, and Stickles on my card it also fits the "On Your MARKers" MIX challenge. Phew! I hope our former postal worker, Theresa likes this happy mail.

That image is super and definitely heartwarming with the cup of heart-foam latte and those beautiful vintage florals and script surrounding it. You even snuck in a nod to the post office with the postage stamp die for the framing. Kudos on combining so many challenges here. Carlene is looking down smiling at you right now; but as you haven't quite surpassed her yet, I will dub the Challenge Princess! Beautiful card, Your Highness.

Every time I see you do a catch up of challenges I am reminded of our dear friend Charlene. She had an amazing talent for finding so many wonderful challenges for her cards and I really enjoy seeing when others add a bunch of challenges to a card. This is a wonderful card to send to Theresa.

A huge commitment on your part. I've committed to doing all the Teapot Tuesday challenges. Others will have to wait until I retire.
Love this card with the soft roses and the postage stamp. Nicely done.
