This week us t-potters and you too if you join us, are going to a Marti-gras Party in Louisiana to help cheer up Heidi who is going through a tough medical time.
I am going to put the title...Let's GATOR done either in a bubble thought on the outside or in the inside...not sure yet...let's get better fast...Maybe name the Gator.." Larry "...not sure where that name came from...lol. I thought this cheery down south fellow might cheer one up.
I found his pic on google and drew it on water color paper, colored it with water color pen and inks, cut it out, then made the room. found a scrap of mac-tac, used it for the bottom and couldn't find a matching pink dp so sponged a white piece of paper with a couple soft pinks to match the flowers. Then made the edging by cutting white and tan scraps and scoring them to add some depth. Used a big brad for the door-knob and cut out a little flower pot from Mary E. paper.
for more info on the challenge follow us on the tuesday t-pot challenge...lets have a great party...Thanks for the visit..:0)..now ..Let's GATOR done...I mean GET - R - DONE...lol...:0)

That alligator is just fantastic - or should that be fangtastic with the toothy grin he's displaying. I love your room background, and especially the little pot of flowers.
