Anyone is welcome to play in the weekly Teapot Challenge - the more, the merrier! You automatically become a “TEApotter” the first time you play. Where will you find inspiration? Will it be from the teapot? The destination location? Something of the recipient? Or could it be from the challenge itself? Remember, your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not a requirement. Just have fun!
CHALLENGE:
Our special guest of honor this week is related to The Bellamy Brothers. I grew up listening to them. I love many of their songs and when I learned our special guest of honor was related I went out to YouTube and just had to listen to their songs again. Brings back great memories. Today we are creating a card from their song Let Your Love Flow. You can find it on You Tube here:
Here is a portion of the Lyrics for inspiration:
There's a reason for the sunshine sky
There's a reason why I'm feeling so high
Must be the season when that love light shines all around us
So let that feeling grab you deep inside
And send you reeling where your love can't hide
And then go stealing through the moonlit night with your lover
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason
DESTINATION STATION:
Our guest of honor this week is Meredith who was brought to our attention by Kelly, aka ScrappinCEO here on SCS. Meredith loves making jewelry and catching up with family and friends on Facebook. Meredith is in her mid to late 30’s and knows some famous people too…her cousins are the musical group, The Bellamy Brothers. Even though Meredith lives in the Sunshine State (aka Florida) we’re going to send even more sunshine her way to help brighten her day (and her room).

With DTGD going, I am just about maxed out on creativity and creations! Sorry. I live in Bellamy territory! I hope these cards brighten Meredith's room.
I will put a card in the mail for her this week...
Thank you everyone who took time out to send me such a wonderful batch of cards and such comforting words it really did help me at this difficult time. I miss my sister dearly and I am still in shock that she is gone and still cant believe she is gone. Sending hugs to all of you and please take time to hug your loved ones...

I love that song and was singing it as soon as I saw the title! Makes me want to roller skate (but not really, because I'd crash and die). Great challenge!

Here is mine for Meredith... could not stop singing that song, compulsively as I tried to fall asleep last night... WOW, finally a card idea formed in my head and I was able to make it this a.m.
Even more fashionably late than Victoria! :-) I did mail the card yesterday, tho, so it's on its way to Meredith!
I thought of flowers when I read the challenge description, because they need sunshine to grow...so I hope these will brighten up Meredith's day when she receives them!

I am running fashionably late too. I did mail this card last Thursday, but am just getting it posted now. Thank you for this wonderful challenge. Here is my card: Sunny Prayers by Art Deco Diva - at Splitcoaststampers. Thanks for looking! ~Karen.
