Today's teapot Tuesday challenge was to make a CAS card for Lindsay and send supplies for her to make a identical card, as she is . Lindsay is going going to be in the hospital for while and will we are sending a card for her to put together to help fill her time. Actually we are going to make a card maker out of her.

What a lovely card. The basket weave-type texture bg is so effective with these summery daisies. The punched band with another color underneath is so pretty.

Hey, Shirt the Squirt! We're gallery neighbors today! I agree with Sally about the basket weave embossing folder being a terrific contrast to the pretty daisies. What a lovely card for Lindsey.

Sistah, this will surely (Shirley?) bring a smile to Lindsay and inspire her to create! I love the texture and bright flowers, and your border punch is delish. Gorgeous my friend! LYMI

Awesome card... love the embossing and gorgeous colors! I have to agree... we have a budding new cardmaker in the works. Once Lindsay starts putting together all her cards, she'll be bitten by the bug, so to speak, and I bet when she gets her strength back she'll join us for a tea party or two!

I love how you layered the punched border & sponged it! I have that punch and will have to try that technique because it looks fabulous! The desert colors look so rich!
