I tried to use some of the colors in the original teapot.
Here is my story:
Elsie is off to California to meet Alicia the cow - maybe they can both star in that Eat Chicken commercial. Just in case, Elsie is bringing her own chickens - maybe we can have a bar-b-cue after the tea party. I threw in my tea cup at the last minute - hope they do not charge too much for the extra luggage. Don't know if you can read them but I used some of the words from the CB "You" folder. I did not want to insult anyone at the tea party, so I left off words like wild and crazy.
Good thing we are headed to CA so the party will still be in full swing.

Love it!!! This is one of Penny Black's adorable images! She has so many great cow and chicken images that I can't narrow down my choices. Therefore, I don't have any of them. :0( Someday.....especially now that my LSS has started to carry them.
Sorry about the rambling! I love your cute cow. She should make the trip to CA just fine with the hens along to help keep her from getting drowsy behind the wheel! Super cute card!!!

It is a good thing you left off wild and crazy because these gals are nuts. I love this image. It is my fav PB stamp. I am so glad you brought your bike to the BBQ. What a great idea for a BBQ. Don't think any of these cows will furnish the beef though. May need to borrow your chicken. We need enough for about 30. Great job..

Those chickens are so cute! Love your image and your story is great! I think you should have used all those words and probably a few more too!

I hope those chickens don't realize they are heading to CA for a commercial to "eat more chickens"! That must be why they have those expressions and the cow looks so happy! Cute card, and as others have said the other words could have definitely been used with this crazy group! But, you got the key word: fun!!!!

Whoo Hoo! Hi Dorothy! Look at Elsie go! She is on a mission to get to California.....she looks wild and crazy! Oops, did I say that?? Should have left those words out of my comment! Snort! Make sure the chickens vote for Alicia cuz if one of the other cows wins, they could become dinner! Snort!
I love how you added the words to your card...and the special little teapot in the corner! Your card rocks and is perfect for todays challenge! Come on with me...I will show where the cow milkin lessons are happening! Your chickens can learn too....maybe that's our new angle for a special commercial featuring Elsie, Alicia and the chicks!
