Okay, yes I have missed so many tea parties, too many, but I read them all and really tried to get to a few, but never made it until tonight!
Life can get so BUSY! Each week I tried to come up with something I could do on a CAS card and nothing came to me quickly, I slept, and it was Tuesday again! How can that be?
Strawberries are one of my favorite fruits and I had this perfect paper, so I knew I could get a CAS card made and mailed out to Doreen! Plus, I enclosed a recipe for a yummy fresh strawberry pie!
Inside has a verse from SU Elegant Inspirations:
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
Thanks for looking!

Welcome back. Drop by whenever you have time and don't put pressure on yourself. When we moved I was MIA for almost a year and when I started back it had been so long I couldn't remember how to link cards on this site!!! I also made no end of stamping mistakes but thank heavens it comes back.

So, is this your first teaparty, or like me are you back after a long absence? Whatever, welcome!
This is a perfect CAS card for Doreen. Love your paper! And how nice of you to include a recipe.

Oh Celisa, it seems like I missed an entire row in the Teapot Gallery. Thank goodness I went back and double checked all the cards otherwise I might have missed this. It is s lovely and will be sure to bring a huge smile to Doreen's face.

Oh my, you did have the most perfect paper! Those little strawberries are so sweet and whimsical, and the binding looks gorgeous with it.
I hear you on the time and busy-ness, and it only seems to get worse :-(.

Your card is very pretty. The big reason why I don't use many of those pretty papers is that by the time I've colored and cut my image with dies, there's not much room left. I like that you made the sentiment shine along with your strawberry paper.
