Default MMTPT460~May 16, 2017~Love Me Tender, Love Me True, No, No, Don't be Blue

Welcome to Teapot Tuesday
the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty
and Challenge #460


Love Me Tender, Love Me True, No, No, Don't Be Blue



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: Spring is finally in the air and that means romance is a blooming everywhere you turn. And that is good news for our friend Lil Annie who runs Lil Annie's Pink Cadillac Wedding Chapel on the south side of Vegas. Just off the strip where the prices are cheaper and the stars are brighter than the lights. But the lovin feelin is just as alive here, just not as crowded.

2: So Lil Annie is busy cleaning and sprucing up the chapel and putting a fresh coat of paint on everything from the walls to the chairs. And she really must see to getting those chandeliers cleaned this yr, last yrs quick-pass really didn't last. So as her list of chores gets checked off and the days on the calendar get crossed out; she happily hums and sings her way along getting ready for what she hopes will be a banner yr for Vegas weddings. And signs are looking good, the hotels are being booked far into the summer and the calls inquiring on wedding and photo packages are increasing.

3: And now that the inside of the little chapel is looking good, she has started sprucing up the outside as well. She planted a lot more bulbs last fall and they are starting to come up and should be blooming prettily by wedding season. But as she's dancing along pulling weeds and adding mulch, she notices something strange in those bulbs. They have the strangest blue tint as they are starting to bud out. RUR ROH!!! Did the package get mislabeled? She just knows that she specifically picked out all pink and white bulbs. Oh no, this could be a catastrophe of the first order.

4: Teapotters help is needed here.

Challenge Translation:

Pink flowers, white flowers, and even an Elvis impersonator or two are what this scene needs. No blue flowers or it's the back door for you for sure.

Destination Station:

This week our teaparty party bus is going to Oregon. If you would like a destination for your card, how about sending it to Alice. She was brought to our attention by Brenda (Tessaduck)

to find out why as well as get the address to mail your card, please visit Post 565 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!

Here is a quick link to MMTPT460 challenge gallery

Be sure to you use KEYWORD MMTPT460 in your upload and post a comment here so we can all see your card!

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 so much! Alice has been a long time friend, usually very funny and upbeat. Anything you send her way would help, I'm sure. Prayers, too, please.

Ok, I have nothing (& I mean absolutely nothing) that remotely resembles The King in any way, shape or form. I think I will send her one of my joy cards Mix222 joy by Sunshinesense - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers along with some cardstock image goodies to color. Would that be ok?

Nothing Elvis, but I did have some lighthouses.

For Alice

And a close up of my pink, sparkly lighthouse

I am sitting here with a scar on my neck from having a parathyroid gland removed less than 2 weeks ago, so I'm feeling a bit of a bond with Alice and knew I had to send her a card.

Hope mine non-Elvis card is ok. It's hitting the mail now (along with goodies to color) because if I don't mail it now, it may get lost in the commotion- my daughter graduates tomorrow so it's a bit crazy here.

No Elvis and no blue flowers, but I hope a lighthouse will do. I did need to use blue for the sky.

I missed the suggestion of a lighthouse and I have a super new stamp. Nothing Elvis, so here is my pink floral card. Mailed today.
