This is my card for this weekÂ’s Teapot Tuesday challenge and CAS challenge. This weekÂ’s teapot has a beautiful parrot on it, so I went into the stamp room to grab my parrot stamp, and there was none to be found. What, no parrot stamp? What self respecting stamper would be caught without a parrot stamp? So I figure it must have gotten hungry and flown off in search of a DELICIOUS snack. What does my parrot like best, why mushrooms of course! They are amazingly delicious! So I needed to make up a little mushroom treat so my parrot will come home. And, of course they need to look appetizing. What makes mushrooms look good to a parrot? Parrot colored mushrooms. So hopefully this little card will bring my parrot (who looks just like Scarlet OÂ’ Carrot) back home to roost!
But, seriously folks, I do think mushrooms are delicious, and so are the fun colors on this card! I CASED the layout from the current SU catalog, but changed the colors and image.
TFL!

Fun, colorful and so NOT carrots . . . in the front door you go to enjoy the tea party and I hope your parrot comes flying back to you soon. Brought a smile to my face.

Sqwauk! Where's your parrot! Where's my carrot! Sqwauk!
Well if your parrot is like my parrot, obsessing about carrots, I can sure see how your could be obsessing about mushrooms.......its just a matter of time before your parrot and your mushrooms are together at last!
Snort!
Hey, there! You are here! Woot! So glad to see you here and how wonderful that you brought this awesome colorful little mushroom parrot enticing birthday card! Love your card and your story! If I see your parrot out and about, I will send him home! I got your back!

I think a lot of self-respecting stampers don't have parrot stamps. Maybe you're right and they've all flown off to their own version of TPT. Mushroooms (of the right sort) are certainly healthy and might contribute to Eula's long life. Sweet card...
