MMTPT918 Parrot

Photo Details

Poster: Cook22

Here's my card for Sue's fun Tickle a Teapotter challenge this week. We've gone from Denise's Snuggle Fest, which it looks is still in force in the north east US right now, to a sunny southern hemisphere.
MMTPT918 - February 24, 2026 - Let's Get Tropical by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers

I more or less followed TLC949 - TLC949 - Embossing Folders with Watercolor - 05/01/2023 by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers to created my background, colouring some watercolor card with Brushos in shades of green mostly. I edged the panel with gold paint and glitter. Parrot and flowers are both Spellbinders.

Such a gorgeous background, just right for those lovely flowers. I’m in the middle of assembling the other parrot from that die set, too. The sunshine today is finally melting some of the 28 inches of snow we were buried under yesterday.

That background is so rich and lush -- it does look tropical. And the parrot is adorable and looks ready to be on a cartoon pirate's shoulder.
