I made this thank you card for my dear friend Donna who loves the color purple. Donna sent a wonderful care package (from her doxie dog "cousin Gracie") to our cat Sadie who had been in the emergency room recently. Sadie became very ill very suddenly and it was quite a scary time. Then low and behold, this wonderful package comes in the mail from Donna filled with a cat-nipped toy mouse, a wonderful Stampendous stamp for "mom" and one of Donna's super fabulous stitchery cards. Needless to say, this really made my day so I wanted to make a special card for me friend. When I finished the card, my husband said, "those are pretty lavender roses" and my brain went ding! I can use this for the alphabet challenge for the letter L. Yay!

Oh, Karen, what a beautiful card and gorgeous coloring! I agree with Sallie about how you colored these lavender blooms! Stunning! And I'm so glad that your Sadie is home and will recover quickly. How very thoughtful and sweet of your friend Donna, and I know she is going to LOVE this card! Hugs, sweet friend!

I love the print of the card base that you paired with your gorgeously done lavender roses. The scalloped edges and the silver trim, it all works wonderfully. Your friend should be quite pleased with this card.
