Brooke has quite the imagination when it comes to ways to hook people into giving her money! She even had a contest once where she had her gullible minions tie $100 bills to her kite strings instead of little bows..... the winner was suppose to collect all the money.....if they could catch the kite! She had it fixed all right though, because her homing pigeons nabbed it in flight and brought it home!
This is for Tuesday's Teapot Challenge. I am sending this card to Sean, the son of my friend, Kathe. Sean is 23 and is suffering from testicular cancer. I hope this will cheer him up!
Thank you to all the Teapotters for what you have done to lift Sean's (and Kathe's) spirits this week to new HEIGHTS! xo
My images are from Sparkle N Sprinkle's Spring Swirl stamp set. The kite is embossed with Blue Ribbon embossing powder.

Great colours and a wonderful card! My husband flies stunt kites for a hobby - they do not look like this -but I am always on the hunt for a good looking kite card like this! Into my fav's! Thanks!

LOVE this, Judy. The color is so uplifting and I love the kite, too. I hope that Sean's mailbox is just stuffed with cards. He has no idea what SCS'rs are all about- until now. You are a great friend to let us know. Hope he improves soon.

Awww...what a wonderful card for your friends son Judy! I know she and he will be so touched that you are so much! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to brighten Sean's day and I hope that your issues at home smooth out this week.
Please check the Destination Station thread for suggestion that Fran posted that might help Sean's mouth pain now and in the future. Maybe you can pass it along to your friend at work. Hugs.
