Today's destination for tea party cards is the mother of SCS's Understandblue. Lydia's mother, Virginia is recovering from a broken femur on top of suffering from severe arthritis. Our cards are to include some of Virginia's favorite things. Curious? Check out Cindy's story and challenge.
As you can see I have included Tizzy Lizzie's castle as well as made a bookmark for all of Virginia's books. I was going to make a second bookmark but decided to include some flower seeds for the royal garden.

Marilynn, this has to be the most thoughtful card in the gallery - love that you included a bookmark and some seeds, two little gifts that keep on giving! So pretty, you've captured the royal theme with your castle and sparkles!

A bookmark.. what a great idea. I haven't made one of these types of cards in a really long time. I just made my sister a book mark and should have created a holder for it. Great job my friend. Hope all is well over there. Hugs.

What a wonderful castle, and the rosy clouds make it look extra romantic. What a great idea to tuck a pack of seeds in to the pocket - always room for more flowers in a garden, as well as books in a house.
