I hope Beulah has running the Texas Bed and Breakfast down to a fine art. Lula Belle Fluffytail will expect to be waited on hand and foot. She thinks her beautiful feathers and amazing colors put her beak and shoulders above all other birds. By the time Lula Belle is done with Beulah, she may be wishing that Red Lexus had gone ahead and finished her off quickly!

This turned out so pretty. I like how you colored the peacock. That stamp set is cuter than I realized it would be. Great card. Oh I really liked the colors you used too.

Cute peacock! brings back pleasant memories for me of my trip to California vineyards, and the one that had all the pretty peacocks in their yard. Great card for the teaparty!

Your story made me smile and your lovely portrait of Lula will most likely be hung in the B & B!

What a great technique to use with the border for that peacock image - like a fan around a fan! Very cool. I love this color combination and is perfect here. Nice texture and bow too, wonderful card.

your color combo brings back fond summer memories of twin ice pops & Lula Belle is so exotic, sure to be an A-lister who will promote higher rates at Beulah's B & B!
