Default MMTPT68 Cardinals

Cardinal Teapot
Hello fellow
Teapartiers. I am going to be your
Hostess this week. I found this cute little
cArdinal teapot. I have
beeN watching a family of cardinals.
My Kids saw the Dad and the babies on
Saturday. They have been
eatinG the acorns from our oak tree.
It is so neat to see glipmses of the red in the branches.
a Variety of
anImals have
beeN
cominG to eat the acorns.

Squirells, blue jays, ground hogs, deer (including a 7 point buck this last week) and now the little cardinals. I am thankful to live where I can see nature out my window. What are you thankful for. That is your challenge this week. Make a card that shows what you are thankful for or you can be inspired by the little teapot. Remember as always there are no rules... just have fun.
Add MMTPT68 to your keywords so your creation will show up in the teapot 68 gallery.

Here is my teapot card.
Check out the MMTPT68 gallery.

Hi Marilynn! THanks so much for hosting today. When I first read it on my Blackberry I couldn't understand the capital letters... now I see it on my laptop and I GET it! LOL. I am working today (I don't like when work interferes with my card making!). To bad I have to do payroll today. If I stayed home to make cards 80+ people wounldn't get paid... that would be a hard thing to explain! LOL I will try to get to it tonight after dinner, after basketball and finally when everyone goes to sleep!!! Beutiuful card and tea pot!
(hugs)
Mo

{P.S.: CHeck back in a few days for a sneak peek, I am hosting next week! Yikes!!! IT's an easy one}

Well, if nothing else I am thankful for an opportunity to use my one big cardinal stamp!! Have to practice some songs for Friday, but I'll definitely fit this in later on today. I never even thought to check this thread this morning - was leaving it till I got home from work.

Great challenge MariLynn -- thanks for hosting. Looks like people have made some beautiful cards.
I'm trying to prepare to lead my book club discussion tomorrow night, and getting ready to travel, so I don't think I'll get to play this week. I will try to visit the gallery and comment, but probably not until later this week.

Cardinals
Thanks for the challenge, MariLynn. I love this stamp, but don't often get to use it. Glad there were so many in the gallery to check on the colouring, as we don't have cardinals here at all. I've been so busy I didn't even have time to make any goodies to bring along the the party - but there are plenty of berries on the card for all the other birds!

For some reason I couldn't view the teapot so I went with the thankfulness theme. Here is what I came up with
