This week the teapotters are off to Dodge City and the Longbranch Saloon to help Miss Kitty get her man or find someone else....to see what I'm talking about check it out here.. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I'm late to the teaparty but I have a good reason.. See Festus is in charge of the huge banners we hang across the streets in these here parts and y'know how he is once he gets his lips wrapped around a beer bottle...well we had to get him dried out so he could tell us where the signs were. We have several b-days that need celebrating and Cowboy Pete is headed this way to give the b-day girls a great big ole Kansas welcome...We Kansans know how to celebrate...head on down to the Longbranch for some of Miss Kitty's spechul tea and you'll see what I mean..hic (wink, wink) giggle...
The bg is a page from a Kansas history coloring book that I scanned and shrunk down and lightly colored with prismas. It is actually a pic of Main St. Dodge City from the late 1800's. The banner is computer generated and Cowboy Pete is stamped, colored with prismas, cut out and popped with diminsionals. Aint he handsome.....Whooooeeeee!!
