This week's Tea Party is for Ann's (annsforte3) neighbor, Pat, who is going through cancer treatment and having a hard time with it. Jacqueline is our hostess and has challenged us to pick some squares off a Pat-themed Tic-Tac-Toe board. I've gone with the top row--Gold, Heart, Camping Related. This cute camper snail ticks off two of those squares with the heart packed on top of his camper shell and the trail of hearts he is leaving behind. I've combined the Tea Party with Chris's color challenge for this week. I used the colors to color my image and then found this background in my drawer with practically the exact right colors. It was a little boring so I heat embossed some gold stars which you can't see well.
I didn't realize it was going to be such transparent embossing powder. I've also added a gold border for dessert and to complete my tic-tac-toe. The religious sentiment will be on the inside of the card.

I think that is the cutest camper I have ever seen and I love the hearts trailing out of the exhaust pipe and the bit of glitter on the snail's head. The bg you created is fabulous with the colors, the embossing, the additional stamping and text -- text bgs are always great. The tire track under the snail cracks me up. I doubt he would ever go fast enough to leave a tire mark but it makes a great spot for that fabulous sentiment. One I hope to always remember. Really clever use of this week's colors. Awesome card, Jen. You are back with style!

Oh my goodness, that snail image is just so cute - and the inch sentiment is spot on to put with it. I can see the stars, and I bet they add a great tactile feel to it too.

Jen, this is so cute with the snail as a camper. You come up with the cutes things. I love the bg and the shading. Pat should get a kick out of the snail camper.
