 I love these sweet images- I used  "Everything Is Coming Up Roses" 
  ( Stampabilities HMJR1074 )
 Yellow and peach roses remind me of my Mother- she was a master gardener and had beautiful roses in her garden. 
 I used Copics to color the image, a digital sentiment and I embossed with a folder from Spellbinders.  The lacy floral die cut is Dies are Us. (Who have gone out  business).

Please visit my DT teammates on my sidebar- what a fun collection of cards they have created!

I'm Back! Teapot Tuesday for Sharon

We went on a trip to celebrate my husband's retirement and his 65th Birthday!  We are beginning he next chapter!

I wanted to post this 'card kit' I made for my friend Sharon- she had a big shoulder surgery, so we had a Teapot Party for her over at Splitcoaststampers. 



 The kit idea is to make a card, and include 'ingredients' for Sharon to make a card.
I used a SU embossing folder and rubbed Turquoise ink over the top.  The piece I put in Sharons kit had the ink rubbed onto the embossing folder itself- so similar but not exactly the same. 
Next, I colored up a bluebird image by Northwoods and matted it. The Thinking of you is die cut from North Coast Creations. There is another embossing folder used for the sentiment. 
 I included a couple more die cuts for Sharon to have on hand for later, as well as some sentiments. 

Wahoo- I have work to do here, so I had better get on the ball!
