Compose a Card . . . Tea Time (challenge nine)

Becky Oehlers has another challenge listed on her blog and this time I am squeaking in under the wire. Busy, busy times here, we're packing up the house and trying to get it ready to list to sell . . . . talk to me in four months I'll probably be saying the same thing yet then, but still, lots of work!

The inspiration piece was so colorful and everyone has lots of scraps sitting around, I know I do, so it was a great way to use some! The hard part was figuring out which to use! I tried to balance out some texture with color, that quilt was so colorful! And I need a cheerful get well card, so the challenge helped fill the bill nicely. I know I usually fuss too much but it looked like it still needed something so I added the white scrolls in the corners to mimic the scroll on the teapot. Thanks Becky for another cool challenge!
