MMTPT400 - March 22, 2016 - I Feel Pretty

[JustMe427]

Welcome to Teapot Tuesday
the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty
and Challenge #400

I Feel Pretty


Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun!

I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright!
And I pity

Any girl who isn't me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh, so charming
It's alarming how charming I feel!

And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I'm real.
See the pretty girl in that mirror there:
Who can that attractive girl be?

Such a pretty face,
Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile,
Such a pretty me!

I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,

Challenge Translation:

Ever want to get a jump on next week's challenge card? SCS has given Sheri (KSNurse) permission to create an email Teapot Tuesday Cheater Group and email the challenge out on the Saturday before the Tuesday of the challenge so you girls can have the weekend to make your card. Send her a pm with your email address if you wanna be a Cheater!

If you are confused about these challenges, see the first sticky post of this thread for more information. There is also a directory of individual challenges.



Thank you for all that you do,
Sheri and Rosalia

I'm a newbie and first time joining a teapot challenge. I will attempt to link this correctly...no promises.

I have not yet done a card but I had to comment - #400 - wow! I was thinking I was around at the beginning - but now I remember...I was a lurker until #56! I was too intimidated to participate - tee-hee! There are several familiar names in those early galleries - and some folks have kind of vanished. It would be fun to know more about those who no longer participate.
I know, I have been MIA quite often as of late - not sure why I seem to run out of time and energy.

Congrats on the 400th challenge!! That's awesome!! That's a lot of tea & cookies. :-)

Question -

What do we write on the outside of our envelope to identify the group or reason we are sending our card?

Shirleysgirl -- Welcome!! You did fine with your link. Cute card. Kim's birthday is April 5th, so I'm think we send our card any time for it to arrive by her birthday.

Thanks!!

[Covington Crafter]

400 tea parties, that's a lot of joy to spread around! Here's my card for Kim Happy Birthday Kim by Covington Crafter - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

It's also for Crafty Merla's VSN challenge. It's not to late to play, all the challenges can be found HERE

"Question -

I usually will write Splitcoast Stampers on the inside of my card...maybe by my signature or I'll mention it if I write a little something. It depends who has requested a Teaparty....I might do something like "I'm a friend of so and so and we're in an online stamping group together....." Or "your friend so and so thought you might like some handmade cards....and I'm in Splitcoast Stampers,etc" I figure that once they get the first card and they'll figure it out...Any other opinions?

[wendy2512]

I agree ....400...wow...how cool is that....lots of tea and cookies and shared LOVE. Peeps I like your ideas. I actually never thought of the inside as to why we are sending. Being from Canada mine are usually one of the last prolbably but I will follow your neat ideas...LOVE it. TY.
Here is my card for Kim..."Gettin Ready "

[wendy2512]

have to get to work, will be back later to check out the cool gallery. HUGS

[DCinkit]

Thanks peeps321 for your response to my question. I'd be interested to know what everyone writes in their card and on the envelope.

Here's my card Kim. I'll send it next week in time for her April 5th birthday.

[Tonda Baldwin]

The first one I posted was MMTPT153, but sent them for about a year before I ever posted a picture. I had internet at the local library so I could get on line but couldn't upload a picture.

Does anyone know how to get the cheaters list?

[Tonda Baldwin]

Anyone know why there is no gallery for 400? It shows empty.

There's a number sign between the MMTPT and 400. I think we'll need a moderator to correct that. I'll pm Sabrina.

Fixed.


Tonda, I don't think the cheater email goes out very often. If you're on the mailing list, you'll get one when there is one. If you want to check, Sheri (Ksnurse) is the person to contact - she's the one with the full list of email contacts and the one who sends them out.

LOL, I always assumed that by the time my international mail trailed in paddy last, I didn't need to explain much. I used to have a return address label with a picture of a teapot, and referencing the challenge as well as having my return address.

[bscovill]

here is my card. What could be prettier than a unicorn? I hope Kim's birthday is magical.
