I love the flowers on your card. You didn't pick them from the garden did you? I heard that they are even stricter about the no picking rule than the Queen was. I like how your flowers match the flower in your vase.

p.s. I'm good at American terminology on recipes! One of the cookery books I grew up on was the Joy of Cooking, so I'm fluent in cups as well as ounces, frosting as well as icing . Glad you could make it to Ireland for the tea-party today. Do you know what part of the country your great great grands came from?

What a great little tea set you brought to Ireland! I think it will be the perfect addition to the little cafe at the Botanical Gardens that Sabrina rented for the day. All the non-teapartier folk will have to have their lunch down by the pond. We get the whole cafe to ourselves. I wonder if there was a hidden agenda Sabrina could have been thinking about in separating us from the general public!! The decor you brought is perfect!
Your card is just precious and its so cool that you can even use it.....you know, like a real card! Giggle! Love that you are here once again! Its beautiful here....huh!

Hey, Linda! Come on over here to my table with that lovely tea set and those yummy cupcakes! Be careful not to step on Peggy's head. She's hiding out in the sewer with Vincent today. Oh, you should also know that she's offering chocolate that has traversed the sewers as well. Oops. Don't forget your hat. The birds and the bees are quite prolific today. Such a pretty card. I'm so glad you were able to travel to Dublin today!

This is the perfect image for this botanical party. I bet in Ireland it is much cooler than here in NC. Also alot greener. I hope we all get some great cake from Sabrina... TFS
