Special Friend

Happy Monday everyone.  I have a card today for Card Patterns and The Playdate Cafe.  I thought these were beautiful colors when I saw the inspiration picture at PDCC.  I made the card for my best friend that I left behind when I moved.  I miss her dearly and especially miss our Friday night dinner and shopping at Archivers, Jo Ann's, and Michaels.  We also enjoyed drinking tea together so this was the perfect sentiment for me to use on this card.


Did you see on  Nicole Heady's blog that there is going to be a companion set and dies to go along with this fabulous set?  I was so happy when I saw that.  Also Michelle Wooderson from Mish Mash has a new set coming out too.  I guess I just gave away what my next purchase will be.  hehe.
My friend Patty at Sewing Seeds for You is having an anniversary giveaway on her blog.  Go over and check it out.  She is one of the sweetest blog friends.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/Rustic Cream
DP:  K& Company
Stamps: PTI Tea for Two
Ink: Martha Stewart/ pink daliah,melon(mixed to make a peach color) & Memento Rich Cocoa
Seam Binding: Memrie Mare
Rose: Prima
Spellbinders: Lables 3, Standard circles LG
Button, Hero Arts gem


Thanks so much for stopping by,
Heather

    Bonjour, Heather! I've been meaning to stop by and say 'merci beaucoup' for visiting my blog and commenting!! J'adore le comments:)hehe I visited your Etsy store -- guess you know which card is my favorite?! I like the way you use a 'frog' (I think that's what it's called) to display your cards. I'm always collecting ideas on how to showoff my postcards....may I post a pic of your Eiffel Tower card to show my readers?
