This is my card for today's Teapot Tuesday challenge. This week the teapotters are headed to Raleigh! Check it out here: MMTPT111 ~ IT'S THE FAST AND THE FURRIEST! AREN'T YOU A TAD BIT CURIOUS? by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
Woo-hoo! I hardly have to travel at all this time to join in on the party! When my pal here, Matt the Mutt, heard that Brodie Layne, Collie from Raleigh and Mary Lou, the Shih Tzu, were getting in on a street race, he just insisted we head on over. Matt may not be the fastest, but he could be the furriest and he has such a kind heart. He heard that Rachel, Brodie's Mom, is ill and before he heads to the race, he's bringing a flower to Rachel that he picked for her himself. He hopes that his little gift will brighten her day during these difficult times.
This card really is for Rachel, a long-time friend of Linda (zgirlsgranny). Rachel was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and her dog, Brodie has gone to live with another family. Rachel loves dogs! You can read all about her here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Hopefully all our doggie cards filled with warm wishes and lots of prayers will lift Rachel's spirits.
I don't have any dog stamps and everyone here knows I have no artistic talent whatsoever, so I didn't attempt to draw anything. I downloaded this cute image from the web (http://adoptionworld.org/pip/dog.gif) and colored him with Copics.
I'll be over to Raleigh shortly! Looking forward to seeing everyone at the tea party and watching the race!

Okay, time to revise the definition of artistic talent! Artistic talent is not putting a pencil to paper and drawing a thing. Artistic talent is doing what you do! Putting a card together as precious as this with nary a dog stamp in sight! That is artistic talent girlfriend!
I love this sweet little image and that flower! Well, lets' just say that Rachel is gonna be doing back flips over this one! It's so very cute, that image is da bomb! You did good for Rachel, Carla!
