While waiting for SCS to come back on I got hungry. So's I made myself some alphabet soup. Sat down to take a bite and low and behold look what I saw in my big red bowl.....T E A P O T. All spelled out as pretty as you please!
So while eating and waiting I started seeing TEAPOT written everywhere. Then, for some odd reason, I took my pencil, dipped the eraser in ink and stamped it on the walls. Took a few other odd like things and my dots became, you quessed it, TEAPOTS! My, what is happening here......hmmmmm
SCS gave up, went to this challenge and it all became clear. Somehow some way subliminal messages were popping up all over apparently for Chris, you see, I was planning on having him and Crisanne over for a spot of tea. Well I hope all these messages help Chris! hehe Briefly.....
Drew this little scene last night right after DS called and said his transmission died. I needed to relax because I am now his wheels. Hopefully we find him a different car real soon.
Colored with w/c pencils and water. Put some dimensional glaze on the bowl before leaving to take him to work. Did this technique one time before going to the grocery store. Helps to be away from it so you actually let it dry. hehe
And dry it did. I must apologize, I see Mr. Curt has once again sneaked into the teapot party. Even he is into the subliminal thing.
Well, for some strange reason I have a bad case of the tireds......gonna take a quick nap. DS gets off work at 10:00 PM. Oh my.......TFL :0)
Hi Sis!

Yikes, is this ever darling, russian spy! You sure have brought all the necessary elements to help this wanna b champion win the tournament. Whoa, you've got mini teapots everywhere, you've spelled the word everyplace imaginable too. If this jerk cant figure it out after seeing this card, he needs to call it quits and get the heck outta doge! So, what's this I hear: you like george strait. Yikes, girl, so the logical conclusion I draw from that is you're into C&W! Oh no, we're definitely not from the same family even though we went to different schools together.

hahahahaha!
Honey ... that's no ordinary alphabet soup ... That's "Teapot Alphabet Soup"! Surely Mr. Chris will "get it" after eating a bowl of this hearty goodness!
Not to mention the sheer creativity contained within!!

Ha! You are too funny yet again. THis is wonderful. I think we'll all be hallucinating teapots after this party. Can you read my mind? I'm sending you a message. I bet you can guess the word.
Your artwork is super! I always get a "smile" out of your cards!

OMG this is hilarious as ever! I love the steamy wavy soup in the bowl! And of course Curt sporting his hint, as well. You are certainly living up to your crown this week, because you MIGHT just win the MMTPT Award with this secret (well, UNsecret) code kinda card!

Is the word Coffee? No? Is it Cranberry juice? Darn it! Kitchen? Window? Cereal? No? Darn it!! Is it mechanic? Trashed Tranni? Car Pool? No? Darn it!
Well, why didn't you tell me? The words have to have the same amount of letters as squares on the crossword puzzle? No wonder I didn't get it right! Anyone can see the word is Teapot! Oh brother!
OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG! This is so cute, so mutnikish! I love it! Look at Curt...He's such the sneaky fellow and his surroundings...
ooohh....Curthy...is that plant in the background what it says it is??? Oh yeah I forgot, its sorta legal now, you know for medicinal purpose..you're okay! Whew! Snort! I love this card!
Me thinks this is in the running for this weeks award but we will see what the others bring! Giggle! It rocks!

Hope you get your car problems sorted soon. But looks as if you find a good way to relax drawing this fun card. Hey, has Curt given up the jewellery business? I love the brads for holding back the curtains, but my favourite thing is the little teapot cracker .
