WELCOME TO TEAPOT TUESDAY
THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING TEAPARTY
AND CHALLENGE #470
MMTPT470 Calling All Ladybugs
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!
Jan, Precious Kitty, is our guest hostess for the Tickle challenge this month. Here's her story for us - and it looks like being a fun challenge.
Hi Everyone!! As you are probably aware, Teapottersville has a huge farming community. The crops consist of many vegetables, grains and even a few fruit groves. But alas this year the farmer�s worse nightmare has happened! There is a huge population of aphids eating away at the farmer�s crops! They are destroying all the hard work the farmers have done. This calls for �FARMER�S ALERT� in all of the community and abroad! They need LADYBUGS! Lots and lots of LADYBUGS to eat those nasty aphids, the more the better � we need to save these crops from being destroyed! So, get out your ladybugs and show us what you can do with them!! All the people in Teapottersville thanks you from the bottom of their heart.
CHALLENGE TRANSLATION: Create a card featuring ladybugs.
DESTINATION STATION: This week our destination is each other! Once a month, we send our cards to each other! A little payback and reward to the teapotters for always sending their cards to the recipient of the Destination Station.
I have started this new thread in the Teapot Tuesday Extras Forum. If you are participating in the card exchange please go to this thread and follow the instructions.
Be sure to use the KEYWORD MMTPT470 in your upload and post a comment here so we can all see your card!
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.
Hi Anita - I have emailed Sabrina and told her about this problem. Thanks for bringing this up to our attention! God bless!

I had requested to be added to the early list a few months ago and got a response but I have not received any emails yet ahead of the challenge. How do I get the challenges early?
So happy to be back to Teapot Tuesday. I've been busy dealing with a huge move. We relocated a year and a half ago, stayed in temporary housing til we found a place we liked, then moved again. There are still boxes that were packed over a year ago needing attention, but I decided to play. Here's my card.
SO fun a story and LOVE the idea of the Lady Bugs...glad to be back...HERE are my little lady bug friends.

It's been a busy summer and I'm finally getting some stamping time in. I've come to help the farmers, Jan! Here's my card Lady Bug Hugs! Thanks for a fun challenge.
I didn't get this in the gallery last week but here is mine. I needed a card for my grand daughter. Thankfully I had the card made in advance for her birthday as I haven't felt like doing anything the last couple of weeks. Thanks for looking.
