Happy Tuesday, everyone! I love Tuesdays because that means it's time for Teapot Tuesday and everyone who wants to participate gets to go on a fun adventure with lots of other fun stampers and tea partiers!!!
Today, we are on our way to the Kentucky Derby to race alongside with Too Tall Tony McTea! Check out the details here for da Mudder's (aka Mothermark) full story and come play along:
Anywhoooo, Bertie and I are on our way to Louisville with our trusty steed, Guardino Palomino! I know. I know. It's kinda weird that Guardino has a big butt just like Bertie, but it's all Bertie's fault cause she never makes sure that Guardino gets his daily exercise and she keeps feeding him m&ms! It's really weighing him down in the rear end! So, we're heading out early to meet up with Pidgesmom so our trusty steeds can feed on the lush blue grasses of Kentucky and, hopefully, lose a few pounds before the race starts.
Oh yeah, I'm also wearing my Pretty Woman dress, hat and shoes (you know, the chocolate dress with the white polkadots----so cool!). It's important that we all look good. I'll ask Bertie to be on her best behavior and not fling anything on our good clothes, but I can't make any promises.
[This card is also for yesterday's Technique challenge to use paper piercing, and last week's Free for All to use the out-of-the-box technique. I used a Mojo sketch.]

Great image, great saying, great colors. Good story, but I recommend keeping the dress until after you arrive -- it's not a good outfit for horseriding.
