Well who would have believed that Bus 42000 would find it's way to the Teapot Challenge? I could not believe my eyes when I saw it, let alone got to ride on it. Leave it to Cindy to find the perfect teapot for this week's Teapot Challenge.
She has written a great story to go along with this bus, and my bus, and believe it or not.... the pencils (you'll really have to read all about that in Cindy's post or my blog.
We're having the party on the bus this week. You'll see on my card that Bus 42000 is leaving behind some of the other "challenge" buses. Bus 83 had 53 passengers. Bus 63 had 55 passengers. And Bus 72 had a mere 18 passengers. Let's see how many passengers we can get on Bus 42000 this week. Afterall, Cindy's teapot is a double-decker. We can really get it rocking!!!
Thanks for the wonderful challenge Cindy!!!

I love your buses... I might even love your busses, but that's another story, LOL! If Bus # 42000 is rockin', I might have to wave from the sidewalk. That kind of motion makes me urpy!! Thank goodness the bus is RED........yellow buses just don't have the same ....oh...feeling for me, I guess. Love your card, and if any part of the story of the pencil caper is true, LOL!!

Such fun - I had to check #72 to see if I missed the bus that week, but I didn't. Brilliant punch art. I was directing someone to your flying pig, who had found it in my RAKs and was wondering about the punches used.
