Here is my card for this weeks teapot challenge and also this weeks colour challenge (chocolate chip, olive and vanilla) plus the technique challenge - patchwork.
This week's destination is Orangeville, California. If you would like a destination for your card this week, how about sending it to Jessica, the daughter of fellow teapotter Cathy (Mutnik# who was seriously injured in a fall while riding her horse this week. Cathy #Mutnik# is the sister of fellow teapotter Connie #Connie Jo9). Jessica fractured her skull in the back of her head, fractured her right temple and has two fractures on each side of her spine by her pelvis. She was riding her beloved Max.
My card... this is Ed - he's running through the daisies - he and the herd are going to pick some flowers and take them to Miss Ellie.
Hugs.. Pat

Oh my, I'd totally forgotten that CDS horse (Charlie??), obviously yours is the first I've come across in the gallery so far. I love the papers you've used, and especially the way that you've used zigzag stitch for piecing it together.
That's one big butterfly - I think I'd be anxious if I had something that size on my nose.

Oh my goodness how cute is this?!? Love your horse and scene and the whole western theme. The layout and stitched panels execute that so beautifully, Pat. Wonderful card

Wow! Even a saddle embellishment! Love the image with the oh-so-cute butterfly on the horse's nose. Great job with the background - great job on everything!
