This card is for Miss Eula in Philadelphia who is turning 108. She has grown roses her whole life and loves learning, reading, and birds. I didn't have any parrot stamps so I went with roses. If you want to participate in making Miss Eula's day special - check out this week's Teapot Tuesday Challenge.
This was also inspired by today's Inspiration site - Elizabeth's Embellishments. I chose this pretty potholder as my inspiration:
I used the Midnight Madness Sketch #14 to make the card - it is a pretty sketch, and this beautiful lace Pat Smethers sent me (I have been hording it for awhile) seemed perfect for it.
TFL!

Bless her 108 year old heart!! I live 10 minutes outside of Philly, but haven't heard of her (then again, I don't tune into the news much; it's almost always depressing).
This is simply gorgeous.
