Late, late, late Saturday night, or maybe it was early Sunday morning by then, I remembered to check the Sneak Peek for the Teapot Tuesday Challenge (look at post 78 here.
So before I finished my packing, I ran around like a nut and put this card together.
Now I don't know what the requirements are going to be for the challenge today but I'm thinking that maybe Cindy has been notified by the law enforcement agents that the teapotters are under investigation.
You know there was talk about some jewels going missing when we joined The Queen, and then there were the allegations of bribing the judges in the California Cow Contest. As I remember it, there were some other questionable shenanigans at some of the other tea parties also.
And now, Cindy is trying to add more teapot members.
Yes, don't you know. This challenge is not just on her blog anymore. This challenge is on Splitcoast.
So, you see, there are any number of people who visit there who can become teapotters also. This is why I think they're keeping an eye on us. They need to find out just what it is about tea on Tuesdays and stamps and paper that causes so much strange behavior (and fun!).
Now you'll understand why this card is A Shot in The Dark.

Oh dear, I thought it was just a theft, and now we are hearing gunshots too? WE had better get this crime solved soon so that we can sit down and have crumpets and tea.

There may have been a shot fired in the dark but it wasn't one of us. It was Bubba. He shot the jukebox that was by my drive in cow. At least that case is solved. Now on to today's case... I love the double ribbons on your card with the punched out lace strip. So pretty. Maybe this will keep the police busy while we get solving!!!
