MMTPT110 - Butterflies Abound

This card was entered today on SCS in Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday #110 Challenge.  This is my second week in the challenge.  The reason I love Cindy's Challenge is because the destination is always for someone's birthday, or someone in need of cheering up, get well wishes -- always something very meaningful.  But, it's just so darn fun to read the stories that the gals can put together to make you laugh and, all the cards are gorgeous.  Cindy (Mothermark) is the nicest lady and has a huge heart! 

This week, the cards are going to a nice lady (sending the cards is optional) (many of you have probably seen her cards on SCS -- M&M's Grandma).  She is just starting chemotherapy and can use all the well wishes sent to her. 

Well, this has been kind of a bum day - took my Blossum cat back to our local vet for follow-up x-rays and found out that there is more fluid amassing around his heart.  So, we are playing it day by day until he needs another tap to drain the fluid - for which we'll have to take him back to St. Louis to the specialist.  Anyway, he had been playing and eating more - so I thought he was doing better.  Blossum has the sweetest disposition of all 3 of our cats.  He never hisses at the other cats, never snarls at them - he just lays back and ignores them or goes over and gives them kisses.  He is such a love.

Card Recipe:

Paper:  SU Night of Navy, Kraft, Blueberry Crisp DP
Inks:  SU - lots of colors
Stamps: Various
Accessories:  SU Ribbons,  Pop-Ups, Rangers Stickles (lots); SU Punch

Well, signing off for now.  Later Gator.
