Years ago there was a SU hostess stamp that I REALLY wanted, but you had to earn it, you could not buy it. So, when I was sitting in the park yesterday trying to decide what to do for the MMTPT326 challenge to include a pumpkin I thought about this stamp. I ended up drawing it from memmory. I don't even have a picture of the origional...I didn't think of making copies of things I like back then...it would have been easier to draw if I had seen it again. I made a copy of my drawing on card stock so I could make 2 of these cards - one to send to the cancer center and one for a fellow teapotter. The WT503 was to use a "favorite" and one of my favs is to draw my own image. I am stretching it for the MIX92 challenge to use pink, but it did say "a little or a lot". Three of the panels have pink and, even though it is hard to see, some of the liquid pearl drops are pink. I did not have any stamps that said "thankful" so I free handed that with a black gel pen. The HYCCT1427 was to make a thankful card with at least 2 mediums. I used copics, gel pens and liquid pearls. TFL, Francie

Oh, Francie! My mouth dropped as I read this! WOW! You sure can draw, and I do remember this set. . . a lovely one! First, to remember it, but more - that you drew it! How beautiful, and then you colored it so beautifully! You do have made skills, like Angie has!! Amazing! I just love the foliage and embellishments you've used and the embossed background! A really stunning card that will be loved by a special someone at MDAnderson! Hugs, sweet friend!

So much talent to hand draw your image. By the way, the image and your coloring are just wonderful. Again love your colors . What a wonderful card, and hand drawn, makes it even more special. So much talent. Great job.

Fabulous art work!! You drew this? WOW! If only I could....
Gorgeous coloring too.
I think I have a stamp similar to this - I must look. A friend of my DD gave her a whole box of stamps which she gave to me... I think it might be in there!!
