Here is my card for the teaparty - leave it to me to come so late - and with such a C&S card to send off to cheer Lindsay up while she is spending a month in the hospital getting her treatments. Made this one simple enough so she can enjoy making it and then added a bunch of options for her choice of sentiment! Hope this teaparty gets her so involved making cards, that she continues to do it once she gets home.
Thanks for looking - sorry I'm so late!! Back tomorrow to comment - wiped out from the heat today!!

Lindsay will have a lot of fun making this card and trying to color her iris as beautifully as you did!! I think having extra sentiments is a great idea, too! Love this beauty!! LYMI

I'm quite sure that Lindsay will be a confirmed card-maker by the time she's enjoyed making all the kits she is receiving. I love your iris - always an elegant flower.
