I just couldn't help myself... I had to make a 2nd card for Mothermarks 1 year anniversary! I had too many idea's in my head that I needed to get out. Has that ever happened to you? I had more ideas then I had card! So here is my second.... If you want to know what I am talking about... check it out here... you will get the WHOLE Story! : http://mothermark.blogspot.com/
So we have all sorts of things getting stolen at the castle. My little bear (from card #1) got together with Bertie and did a little "looking around". We came across some flowers... that someone uh.. gave us... yeah, that's right, gave them to us, fresh from the Garden. (Shhh.... don't tell anyone that they were Freshly picked!)..... then we just "Happened" across some gold jewels... The Queen said that Bertie can help herself to what ever she wants... so we just did that... we got ourselves some pearls and some gold trinkets... (after all the price of gold is high right now....). Then Berti and I made our way to the local pub, and who did we find "working" there??? Miss Rose... oh yeah, she knows how to make a "buck". She too slipped out of the tea party.... boy oh Boy...
next stop: Hershey Pennsylvania.... we have to see if there are any Tea parties going on there.... and perhaps a trinket or two?

What a cute little card....Miss Rose was so happy to see you girls...she was telling me that she is learning a lot of English words in the pub. Yep....she is so bloody happy now.
Don't tell Mothermark but I put some good stuff in this cup of tea. Oh and btw some of the guards who was off duty came along with me....they are over there! What a party. So glad you came and brought another card. I love the how the big flower looks...did you do that embossing or does it come that way? The butterfly is adorable. Nice job...!
Love you for always

Miss Rose is learning what sort of English words? I trust you just mean she is learning pavement instead of kerb, and rubbish instead of trash! And how to pronounce tomato correctly, LOL. Oh yes, and coriander instead of cilantro, in case she goes into any of those Indian restaurants.
Love that little butterfly and the pearl-embellished flowers.

Hey, I thought I heard my name being muttered! Don't tell Mothermark???? Hee! Don't you guys know Teapot Tuesday Challenges have no rules, no requirements? Sometimes I just don't need to know, you know too much information! See, you are on the right track..don't tell Mothermark! Snort!
OMG! Now you guys have hired the local butterflies to make off with the jewels! How much did you have to pay? Hmmmmm Note to self, butterflies at Windsor Castle will work for Tea Partiers!
I love that you made another card Maureen! Its precious and you have quite the collection of beautiful embellishments and jewels on it. Its been quite a lucrative trip for you and Bertie. Just a little heads up, we may have to sell some of your jewels to pay for damages, you would be willing to do that, yes???
So happy you came back a second time. Yah, we are still here, the line moves slowly but its fun keeping entertained!
Hi mom!

Maureen, I am glad you came back with this second card. I love how your gate fold looks. The gold cording, the gold butterfly and all those pearls is so elegant. After this trip to England I think we are going to end up on Schirmcat's naughty list if we aren't careful. Maybe next week when we get back we should go help out in a homeless shelter. I bet we could serve them iced tea (since it is summer!).

I see that one of those rare gold butterflies that are native to only the Windsor castle has landed on your lovely card. Probably because it is familiar with those flowers hint hint. I just love the pretty pearls in the center of those lovely flowers. When you are in Hershey remember to try chocolate licorice.
