Congrats to Susan aka One4Joy for becoming our newest Queen. While strolling through her gallery last night I came across this card.
I knew I wanted to make a card for the MMTPT131 Mother's teapot challenge this week that was on the lighter side. Cindy's niece Shari is battling breast cancer. They also have a new white scotty puppy (Nessie) in their lives that is keeping them busy and is a wonderful distraction. Susan's card was perfect and gave me a fabulous idea. I hunted the internet for an image of a scotty dog. It was perfect, plus it had the bow and so did Susan's card. I finished it last night but was way to tired to upload. I knew I shouldn't have started so late, because once the idea came it was to late to turn back. So here I am this morning with my Sweet Nessie card.
Weather should be good today, so I hope to get my teapot cards in the mail and off to Shari in Colorado.
Thanks for looking

Oh, Irene, your little scotty dog is adorable (I know what you mean, I'm a little like a terrier dog when I get an idea in my head, I can't let it go till I get there!) The colors are completly fabulous!

Irene, what a delightful and thoughtful card you made to honor Susan and send to cheer Shari. This card will distract her with its clean and simple lines and that awesome image of the Scottie, as much as Nessie herself!! Always impressed with your cards. TFS

What a delightful card--perfect for Cindy's niece. Love the colors and that darling dog. The pearls are a beautiful embellishment on this elegant card.
