I rarely play in this challenge, but had some extra time tonight (which means I'm probably not somewhere I'm supposed to be!) and thunderstorms always make me creative, so here I am.
Loved this sweet story and teapot. My card (with no stamping!) shows Amelia bringing a basket to Daisy-May and Dixie. The basket is filled with ribbons, buttons and even some her favorite sewing patterns. Hopefully this will help them make the perfect Harvest Dance dress.

Oh I so LOVE thunderstorms, ( as long as nothing gets damaged or no-one hurt of course ). This is just darling for the dance, all them notions will so help Daisy-May and Dixie they will have some mighty fine dresses now for sure.
such a sweet silhouette over the soft purdy' bg. Thanks for playing along in the challenge, so glad you could make it and enjoyed my little story. I am from a farm but havent lived there for many years and miss it so, I think thats where the idea started..:0) Was going to say too this week is tickle a t-potter week, so if you would like to join us there too there is a link to on the story page and let them know what number you would be and then we treat each other and send them to one another, even add a couple little treats for each other papers, a couple stamped images or stickers, but that is not neccessary to join in on the fun, it is so fun to recieve the old fashioned mail thats NOT a bill...;0)...have a great night.

You have captured a real nostalgic feel on this (is that due to the thunderstorm too ;-) with that sweet silhouette, the pretty floral DP which reminds me of some of the dresses my mother used to make for my sister and me, and that great retro sewing-themed DP on the base.

Wonderful card! I love the papers you used, and the buttons are the perfect embellishment! How sweet of Amelia to bring all the things the girls will need to sew their party dresses!
