(I have had lots of trouble uploading this. This is an edited version.)
NO, this is NOT a photo of mothermark, aka Cindy, aka da mudder. It is a photo of Honoria Astoria modeling the gown suggested by our Tea Pot Party hostess Sheri - surely da mudder will want to wear this beauty to her BIG THANK YOU party! This seamstress followed the suggestions to minimize unflattering aspects of the figure, while enhancing those skinny legs. (Tell me when you find the formula that really works!)
You may have noticed a lot of black and white and white and black polka dots - Cindy's trademark - in the gallery the past day. We are sending lots of thank you's and hearts to show our appreciation to Cindy who started this whole tea pot party extravanganza and thoughtful destination. For all this, as well as your inspiration, creativity, and humor as well as much more, we thank you - and hope this "retirement" is only temporary.

Thanks, Sheri and all - this party is in capable hands!
(I just had to use this AI stamp, which became a sort of trade mark for several of our past parties. I think I managed to include enough details to qualify for extra cookies - but not the back door, for that is not a parrot LOL!)

I'm sorry you had so much trouble uploading, Dorothy, but I'm glad that you persevered through it all and that Honoria made it to the party in her polka-dotted outfit and amazing party hat! That reminds me of a book I had when I was little which I got for me nephew recently, with a dog trying on ever more exotic hats.

Oh my gosh, I love this image! Honoria shouldn't worry about those skinny legs, with a hat like that, who's gonna notice! This card for her is fun, funny, and full of love!

Roll out the red carpet Honoria is coming. Love the layered polka dot hearts. Is that a parrot perched on her chapeau? This is so much fun and your card makes me smile.
