Teapot Tuesday finds all 42,000 Sisters of the Traveling Teapotters (and their friends), sending love and encouragement to our very own Miss Kathleen Lammie from Alabama. Just typing her name makes me smile.
Here we have Emmy Lou, Tallulah and Helen. Actually Helens friends call her Vinnie, as I cut her ear off during the fussy cutting process. To cover her injuries I gave her a very large hat.
Oh dear, it is harder than I thought to be cheerful so I will keep this short. I hope our cards convey to Kathleen exactly how much she means to us. It is hard to believe that we have never met in real life, that is the power of her personality and generosity.
Good luck my wonderful friend. You are in my prayers and heart. Big hugs, Susie

Kathleen's card from you HAD to be one of your step cards...they are so truly magical and merry making that they just naturally make you smile ALL over and feel better. Love the sweet envelope that Emmy Lou is holding and the hat "just works"! I know she has seen it from her comments above but when she holds in her hands she will feel all the love that went into the making of her card...

What perfect images! We can just imagine Kathleen holding not one but 42,000 cards! Sorry about Helen's mishap - but at least it could be fixed with a hat! Better her than you... LOL!

Oh, Susie, what an amazing card! Kathleen is going to love it, and it is truly a blessing that we get to "know" each other here on SCS no matter how many miles separate us! What a blessing you are! Hugs, sweet friend!

Holy Schmokes, Susie, what a sweet, adorable card - reminds me of a scene up in Cape Cod, Maine, with the clapboard siding, the bicycle and the gathered friends! Such a lovely card for our sweet Kathleen!

You are so right. Kathleen is the type of person who even though you've never met face to face, you feel a kinship with her due to her lovely spirit. This card is fantastic. So sorry for the ontological mishap, but he hat works.
