Polka dots

This card is for the weekly Teapot Tuesday challenge at Splitcoaststampers.  Each week we have a selected recipient for our cards.  This week they go to a couple who recently lost a 21 year old son in a tragic accident.  He was an organ donor, so the knowledge that in his death he could help others may provide some comfort.  (Recently a policeman in the Phoenix area was gunned down in an ambush.  He, too, was an organ donor, but I was disappointed that this information was not widely reported on the news.)  Find out more about the Teapot challenge here:  Teapot-Tuesdays-mmtpt409

Hi Dorothy - this is a lovely card and I'm sure the young man's family will appreciate your thoughts. I really like the embossed strip onto which you've applied the sentiment. Thanks for playing along at Feeling Sketchy.

Hi Dorothy! This is such a sweet card with such pretty colors that I'm sure it will brighten up their day for a little bit. The Phoenix officer tragedy here was just so sad wasn't it? I'm always looking for places to donate cards, so thank you for letting me know about this, and thanks so much for joining my challenge this week :)
