Mothermark has posted the cutest Teapot, looks just like a computer, so our cards are to be with that theme in mind.
I'm not good with stories, so I'll just tell you about my card. I made my card and showed it to my husband to see what he thought of it. The first thing he said to me was, "Snails don't have eyes in their heads." Well, Gee, I didn't know, He told me that their eyes are in their tentacles sticking out of their heads. Well, I had to get my dictionary and look this up and he was right. So I learned something new today. So teapot Tuesday is not only fun...it's educational! And designation station makes it really a good thing.
Sorry if My snail info was more than you cared to read...smile. You will notice I put an eye anyway...I think with teapot Tuesday we are allowed a lot of poetical lincense...like cows driving cars....etc. smile...

Snail mail... how perfect is that! Love your iris fold snail and pretty papers. Guess I learned something new tonight too, 'cause I didn't know where snail's eyes were either.

Tee hee! Your hubby sounds like my hubby...although he is beginning to ask me everyweek where we are going on Tuesday! Bwahaha! Anyway, the funny thing is had you not put eyes in the head, I woulda been thinking, hey Jill, you forgot eyes goofball! Snort! This card rocks....how fun...I love that foldy thingy you do with paper...I know its a technique but I don't do those!
I love it!
P.S. You said you don' do stories but you did one. The story of your hubby and the snail eyes! I learned something today too. So far:
1. Snails don't have eyes in their heads.
2. If we didn't have thumbs we would be apes!

Cute, cute, cute!!! Your iris folding is so cool. I'm glad you gave your cute snail an extra eye; he's gonna need it if he's going to be around the rowdy tea partiers today.
