The teapotters are honoring our dear late friend Chatterbox-1 aka Carlene by makeing a thinking of you/sympathy card for her husband. We are using at least 3 old challenges to inspire our card. If you knew Carlene, you would remember that she incorporated a lot of challenges in each card. I won't come near to how many she used, but in honor of her I did my best!
CC933- Coastal Cabana, Crumb cake, Poppy Parade
MIX523- Stenciling and I spritzed with water.
SC942
CAS700-Sympathy
ABC18J10-J for jumping jacks; don't you think my stencil looks like jumping jax or the jax from the game jax? Toys are our theme this round.
Thank you for looking.

Love these colors and perfect for this challenge -- both peaceful and happy. Great image too. The sketch really lends itself well to this challenge and I think you used it wonderfully to create this wonderful card.

Carlene would be impressed with all of the challenges you've used for this lovely card for John! I loved playing jacks! I wonder if I'm still coordinated enough to play that game. I'd probably have jacks flying every where! LOL

Oh, I do see what you mean about the background! I remember they were the in craze when I started school. Love the colourful little cluster of banners.
