Sneakin in on Teapot Tues.
MM it's not exactly a teapot but certainly inspired by one and not totally white, but hey it's got DOTS!!
So hopefully you'll let me squeak by.... this time!
This one was so much fun. Origami trees, watercolor hills with crystal glitter. Stamped up the background trees, masked out the smaller ones with duct tape. Silver Brads in the corners for even more Man effect.
See naughty listers are the best!!!
Here is a link to the video I used to make the trees:

Man oh man, gee Bubba, you surely know how to get to woman's dots! Cindy is not the only one who is going to love this card. What an amazing work of art. Now I will be eyeing that video you know that. I am so going to case this. I am amazed and pleased at the talent you share with us all, poor untalented ones. LOL

Oh, my, this is just beautiful, Buckle Man. I am impressed. I love the origami trees with the stamped trees behind them and the glitter snow. You have really out done yourself. MM will be thrilled to see this beauty you made for TP Tuesday.

Okay, now this is about the coolest! I love that polka dotted tree....do they have those in Colorado? I have yet to seen one but I will look long and hard! You have certainly been working hard on this and I am so impressed that you tracked down a video to make your trees! You really are da man!
You're right, no rules, just how you are inspired and how you have fun. This is fun for all of us! You certainly are quickly becoming the most improved SCS stamper and you are a MAN! Yikes! Snort!
Thank you for coming to my tea party and bringing this wonderful card! Sorry we ran a little short of tea but next week we will prepare a little better, you know, we are not prepared for a MAN DRINKER!
Whisper: I might have to go a different direction on your birthday card, I might have to be nice after this duct taped masterpiece! It rocks!

Duct tape rules!! This is the coolest card Buckleman, and I can see where and from who you have drawn your inspiration with that center polka dotted wonder...it is full of charm, beauty, serenity, and fun!! Way to go with the challenge, and if you come to the teaparty, bring your own mug so you don't have to get refills!!

WHY BUBBA! So nice to see you at the tea party on your week off! Does Pat know that you are drinking tea with all of us ladies? Do real men drink tea? Or did you have a Budweiser latte or something...I betcha that's what THE Photographer drinks after photographing all of MM 3-D Wonder cards, hee! I think this is absolutely fabulous...even for a Naughty Lister...and your lingo is improving...except for the masking with duct tape thing...but I'll forgive you because your scene is second only to THE Kittie, hee hee!

Dots, oh yes, you've got to get bonus points for that. It's not as if Cindy never stretches a point herself, after all. I opted for origami too, but I wanted to be able to stick mine in a regular envelope and mail it. Have to show this one to my DH, he being into the regular type origami himself. Thanks for bringing this great card to the party this week, it was worth crossing the Atlantic for.
