Hitch hiking? I was always told never to pick up a hitch hiker. SO, what are the odds that WE, and IÂ’m talking all 42,001 of us, will get a ride today? Pretty slim I must say. Oh well, at least we are among friends, and food, and shops to shop in and letÂ’s not forget, TEA! HeheÂ…..
Curt here looks like he is already tired. I looked like this Sunday when DH took me on a bike ride….mouth wide open trying to catch my breath. He kept saying “just a little further”. BUT I kept saying “that means I have farther to go back”. Yikes, 16 miles later I made it back to the car. I’m still trying to catch my breath! I was so sore all night long. Oh well, age is not pretty when you get to mine.
Hopefully Curt makes it to Lynn, MA on all fours. I at least had a bicycle. Oh, he also has extra signs just like his in case you’d be interested….again hehe. Always pays to advertise the “what-evers”.
Well, if you havenÂ’t figured it out, it is once again Teapot Tuesday. Please, go here for the story of todayÂ’s happeningsÂ…Â…..my cardÂ….
Curt here is from a Whipper Snapper image of a trio of characters only minus two of them. The scene was inspired from a clipping from the newspaper of a guy on a bicycle, could have been me. hehe The clouds, which btw, resemble “88’s” are from a Close to my heart set a customer just recently gave to me. All greenery is from CDS. The flower, well it’s a crocheted two toner one I did from a pattern I found then added the button center.The coloring done with copics, sponging, and vm/clear ep combo.
Well, I sure hope there are lots of goodies at this shindig cuz all this exercise has made me hungry! ReallyÂ…Â…Â…Â…TFL :0).....Evelyn, this one's for you! :0)
Hi Sis! Hi NC Sis!
P.S. In case the 42,00”1” has you thinking, the “1” is for Curt! hehe He’s #1!...in my book….again hehe.

Back to the old days when they walked all the cattle to the cattle yards! At least Curt has a better fate in store - I am sure Evelyn will love and pamper him. How could she not!

Just so creative and fantastic!!! AWESOME card for our Birthday Gal!! Looking forward to seeing Curt at the teaparty!! Hope it is not tooooo cold, we South TEXANS don't care much for cold!! It is still in the 70's here!

Curt is back - woohoo!! I think Curt should put some rollers on his hooves and he can glide into Lynn, MA. Your Curt card is awesome, as always, and always makes me smile and giggle. Your flower is beautiful - and certainly wish I had that talent. Another wonderful Curt episode!

Dude! Who put Curt in charge of doing the thumb's up?? Duh, Curt doesn't have thumbs! No wonder the passerbyers aren't stopping for us widdo cute teapotters just trying to get to our buddy's burfday party! Curt.....you gotta a new job! When a female driver pulls up and the teapotters are showing their thumbs, you show a little leg......and maybe if that doesn't work, we can make a new sign....free necklaces! Just stop and they are yours! I know, it might hit your bottom line a little but we are getting hot and tired and Curthy is sore from trying to be Lance again! Didn't she learn when we had our teaparty at the Tour de France?????
Hey sis.....you coming? I know..... why didn't we think of this earlier.....Curt with no thumbs......Geeze Louise! Do you know how to spell geeze????? doesn't look right!

This is my comment!
OMG! This card is so awesome! Curt is so cute! and I love the 88's in the sky. Howza come no clouds did that on my burfday???? A reason to look forward to getting to 88 I think! This card, like all of yours rocks! Now when Curt advertises all the things he sells, he is buying signs from himself! Genius, an awesome Entre-manure!!!
Curt make sure you stop by my house - you look udderly exhausted! I'll have some snacks ready for you to recharge your tired & aching bones, instead of a cannoli how about some scones? Curt you are moovelous and Evelyn will love you!

Your cards "mooove" me to laughter each time. I'm at work, trying to keep the tears from rolling down my cheeks. Wonderful card as always. Made my day!

Fabulous card, Cathy! Awesome coloring and details! Isn't it an awful long way for Curt to have to walk - CA to MA??? We are all going to need tea and cake, for sure, after this trip! Love your card!

ROTFLMAO! Again! Cathy, I love YOUR story of the bike ride (I only really love it cause it wasn't me!!) I hope you have finally caught your breath! Now......I also love that flower you crocheted (you multi-talented multi-tasker!), the scene, the 88 clouds, and of course Curt, who I also hope has caught his breath. His sign is fab, and I'm kinda wonderin' what other signs he may have hidden. Hitchin' is dangerous business, but we have a friend whose son hitched home to MA from Michigan with the fraternity St. Bernard (all the way in a VW, no less!), so I guess Curt may get to MA after all. TFS this fun card and story too!!!
