Send word to the masses!
It's on to Plan B to help Harry Potter see!
Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun!
This is my story!
1. Speaking of Harry Potter! I have never seen a Harry Potter movie! Well, I take that back, as of yesterday, I had not seen one. For years, we've been thinking it would be fun to watch them in order and catch up to the rest of the world! I bought the first 6 movies dirt cheap so we are well on our way! At least I know the gist of the story now! Yikes!
2. We are off to have tea with Harry but upon arrival, the scene is a little bit scary! He can't seem to get his bearings on the plans for the day. He's finding it difficult to navigate through the story and without him leading the way, a special birthday may go un-celebrated! Its mass confusion! Not good!
Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary, how does your garden grow?
Oh brother Harry, that's not Mary!
Where did your glasses go?
Little Bo Beep, she's still lost with her sheep?
Oh brother, Potter, can't you spot her?
Where did your glasses go?
Hey Diddle, Diddle, it's the cat and the fiddle!
Oh brother Wizard, That's a big lizard!
Where did your glasses go?
It's Hansel and Gretel! Is that a tea kettle?
Oh brother HP! You really can't see!
Where did your glasses go?
Old Mother Hubbard! Is that you in the cupboard?
Oh brother you guys, he needs glass on his eyes!
Where did his glasses go?
Is that the White Rabbit? A flying nunn in a habit?
Oh brother my friends, can he only see through a lens?
Where did his glasses go?
We cannot be tardy to this all important party!
We cannot find his glasses! Send word to the masses!
At this time of year, during a Harry Potter premier
It's on to Plan B to help Harry Potter see!
Bring presents, balloons, confetti, and cake.
An extra pair of specs for Harry Potter's sake!
Nothing will be greater, nothing will be hotter.
Than a birthday party scene through the eyes of Harry Potter.
CHALLENGE TRANSLATION:
This is the first official Teapot Tuesday sketch challenge with a twist! Ha! Make a card any size, any shape but the layout should include two framed circles side by side resembling Harry Potter eye glasses. In the circles show birthday party images. Balloons, cake, confetti, cupcakes, presents, etc. A birthday party as seen through the eyes of Harry Potter! You get extra cookies if a wizard is hanging around your birthday party scene!
DESTINATION STATION:
This week our destination is Bellingham, WA. If you would like a destination for your cards this week, how about sending them to Hunter Renz, the oldest son of Katie Renz who recently lost her battle with cancer. Charlene (cookiebaker) brought to my attention that Hunter will be celebrating his 12th on December 1st. This will be his first birthday without mom to make it special. Showering Hunter with hand made birthday cards will give him a little something to look forward to at the mail box.
For more information including the address go to
Post #260 in the Teapot Tuesday Destination Station thread. Please remember that just because you participate in a Teapot Tuesday challenge that is combined with a card drive request, it does not mean that you are REQUIRED to send your cards. It is totally 100% voluntary!
Here is
