Welcome to Teapot Tuesday

the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty

and Challenge #489

If Heaven Had Phone Service

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!

The Rest of the Story:

1: I think a lot of us can identify with this song. Hope it gives you some inspiration for your cards.

Challenge Translation:

Encouraging thoughts, prayers, and blessings are all welcome. Lots of flowers and butterflies too.

Destination Station:

This week the Teaparty bus is going just down the road but staying in the great state of Oklahoma. If you would like a destination for your card, how about sending it to Martina.

to find out why as well as get the address to mail your card, please visit post 594 in the Teapot Tuesday Destination Station thread. Please remember that just because you participate in a Teapot Tuesday challenge that is combined with a card drive request, it does not mean that you are REQUIRED to send your cards. It is totally 100% voluntary!

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.

This is so sad Sheri. Can you tell us who Martina's friend is that has requested the cards?

I can't count the times I have posted here that I am back - then fail to carry through. I am going to try to catch up a bit - I have lots of cards in my stash but I also like to make new ones! I know a couple of recent tea pot parties have been for individuals who are seriously ill - I hope my cards will not be too late to bring some cheer.

By the way, welcome to all the new hostesses. I especially like the idea of including recipient information all in one post.

I'm still playing "Challenge Catch-up" cardmaking! This card goes to my youngest daughter as her 2020 Christmas card, one of the few actually finished and delivered before Christmas. The challenge inspiration song, The Rest of the Story, is all about Jesus' death, resurrection, and second coming. It inspired me to think about His birth and arrival on earth for the first time under the Star of Bethlehem.

I was inspired to make a Christmas card celebrating his birth and first coming and filled with of heavenly stars. Here is my card: Christmas Stars Shining on High--BLACK & RED!
