Meet Simone. Simone is all about class no matter what she does or where she goes. She was a little hesitant to join da Mudder's tea party cause she heard there were a few rowdy, unsophisticated tea partiers and one who, in particular, gets a little out of control with flinging things (I can't imagine who she's talking about). However, she heard this party was being held for a good cause and, being the classy and charitable lady she is, she set aside her worries in order to help out.
You can get the full story here and, hopefully, even play along:

Wow, Charlene, you have the perfect hat for this card (party!)
Fabulous coloring, and the black polka dots make a dramatic bg, very fitting for the glamorous Simone! Who knows, maybe her presence will inspire demure and respectable behavior at the tea party - on the other hand, maybe not!

Wow, that Simone sure knows how to wear a hat!!! I could put this on and still look like I'd been caught in a rain storm. And who did her makeup--she truly is elegant and I can see no traces of any "flung" matter adhering to her hat or face or lovely scarf. She even had the class to bring along identifiable dots. We're living high today. Just Gorjuss, Charlene!!

Wow. I just don't think Simone will be able to handle it all. She is so classy and refined.......maybe we could give her a plastic bib and shower cap for her hat?
Beautiful card, Charlene! I love her expression! And your coloring is divine.

Yah, right! Don't you be thinking you are gonna pull one over on me Bertie! I know thats you under that hat, disquised for close up flinging! The other teapotters might be mezmerized by Simone's beauty, but I know a fraud when I see one....why else would she wear such a big hat if not to hide the slimy stuff in the brim!
After 126 teaparties with you, don't be thinking I don't know your agenda!
Okay, I gotta hand it to you, if you were not the flinger of all things, this card would be so classy, beautiful, eye catching and gorgeous....with black and white polka dots even.....Oh, okay, I will pretend you are not a flinger....yah, this card is that good! Joyce will love, love, love it!

Wow... Simone sure is one glamourous lady! Fantastic coloring. Beautiful DP... the shades of gray are gorgeous with the red and purple, and that bow is just perfect.

Whoo hoo! Good shot Bertie! Ha ha! Genius you are! Thinking of a way to get close up for flingin'! Snort! Ha ha! Look at that sliming stuff hanging off her nose! Whoo hoo! You da man girlfriend! Hey, look at those red hatters over there, shh.....okay, act sophisticated......how does my hat look, is it crooked or smooshed? Okay, good! Did you see I wore my best socks? Yah, I turned them inside out! So the black and white polka dots don't show goofball!
Come on...before they catch on to us! Whoo hoo...this is fun! And when the red hatters figure out its us we can go get the boys! Matt, Bob and Jed with slimy stuff on their head! Life is good.....
