The teapotters are bringing carts full of flowers to the tea party today, and I figure eventually those flowers will start wilting and need a little water, so I brought the watering can. (Please hand me another cookie for thinking ahead!)
Cindy has a worthy destination for this challenge (see here: MMTPT182 ~ GEE, DAT'S BETTER! MUDDAH, FADDUH, KINDLY DISREGARD THIS LETTER! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers) but my SIL's birthday is Thursday, so I used the teapot theme as the inspiration for this card.
I'm sure many of you recognize that ancient SU stamp. It felt good to give it a little new life.

Hey, I've got that set - mine certainly never looked this good. Thanks for the nudge to dig it out. This is lovely - great layout, and yes, before long everything here will need a lot of water! HB to your SIL.

Oh yes, definitely, you deserve EXTRA cookies! I do recognize that stamp! I think I have it too, but it never occured to me! I was just thinking "flower cart", so I think the stamp I used on my envelope is even OLDER than this one!

Well you deserve some extra cookies for thinking to bring the watering can! Plus you brought flowers! Very pretty card. I love the way you used the circles on the background.
