Here is my card for todays tea potter tickle challenge = we get to tickle each other this month -CHALLENGE TRANSLATION: Bring dice, dominoes, playing cards, Scrabble , Monopoly, Yahtzee and Checkers.
But don't toss in horseshoes or you'll be tossed out in the storm!
This is also for this weeks colour challenge - soft sky, blushing bride and crumb cake.
I stamped the teapot border onto kraft paper - I used blush blossom ink. coloured bits of the teapots with copic markers. Stamped over top with sanded backgrounder with blush blossom ink. Cut out the scrabble letters from dp I bought at Michaels awhile back. Sponged edges. Created the words - fabulous, friends, ships, teapotter, rocks... ... I had the image of the two ladies already coloured - probably coloured them about 5-7 years ago... Stamped a coloured 4 extra teapots and coloured them. Assembled the card. Matted with blue card stock. Sewed around edges....
PS - the girls are drinking "Ice tea"
I hope this card will put a smile on the tea potter recipient.
Hugs..Pat

Who wouldn't smile to receive this, Pat! Those tiles are so realistic looking, and I love the soft muted background in contrast to those lively ladies.

Pat, this certainly put a smile on my face! It's absolutely perfect! I love the background paper you created, and the scrabble game in progress - I have this paper, too, and it's awesome that you used it this way. Of course, the row of tiny teapots and tea-drinking friends are colored to perfection, and I always love your stitching. Awesome card! Thanks so much for playing in my challenge!
