This is my card for today's Teapot Tuesday challenge. I can't believe I've actually made it to the tea party two weeks in a row! This week we are headed for Coconut Creek, Florida, the Butterfly Capitol of the World! We've been invited by Tilly (the Tutor) Tubberfly. Seems she is having some trouble with her teenage sons, Turbo and Tucker. They would rather zip around, Top Gun style, doing fly-bys of the National Butterfly Behavior Foundation, than behave like proper butterflies! They've got poor Tilly in a tizzy and the teapotters have come to help out!
This card is also for Jackie (m&m'sgrandma), who could use some happy mail right now. Check out the Destination Station #110 post here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Jackie's daughter, Trina (mnfroggie) says her Mom loves butterflies and flowers and frills.
I used the Mojo Monday #155 sketch for my layout: http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2010/...5-contest.html
See you at the tea party!

I agree with Dawn Carla! You have amazing papers! I love the ones you put together here! No way these two flutterbys could be renegades..they are too fancy schmancy hanging out in their beautiful setting that you created! I am tickled you are on a Teapot Tuesday roll.....You will always be a regular even if you aren't a regular! Giggle!
I get such a kick out of how you summarize the story. You got it down pat! Jackie will love this card...its totally beautiful!
