Poor Flat Footed Ruby - so unfashionable. Here are her friends that are discussing where they can find some suitable shoes for Ruby so she can attend the tea party in style.

I think this may be a Penny Black image - I stamped this image last summer when visiting friends.

You know that scene from The Music Man were the "old ladies" are gathered and the feathers are flying and they're singing "pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little, pick, pick, pick, talk a lot, pick a little more" and they cut to the chickens - well, this must be a modernized version of it and I can just hear them singing. (Of course we'd hear glasses clinking too!) Love it.

Just look at these partiers! What a group of ole' hens, just a cackling and all. You know, I had a step grandmother who lived on a farm. When her sister and her got together and started laughing you would swear there were chickens in the room. What a riot. Just like your card here. I'm gonna hang with this group, they look like fun!!! Awesome card. TFS :0)

Great image for today's tea party! I bet these are Ruby's friends that make her envious of their stylish shoes! Cute card!

Harriet this is adorable!! They wouldn't sipping any of that fermented grape juice now would they? Can you please point me in the direction of the bar in which these drinks are found, I am afraid I am in need of one (or two or three) of those drinks as these heels are such a pain in the "booby"!
Love your card, those chicks are just too stinkin' cute!! Tfs!
