Grab your finest hat and white gloves for we're off to meet Sabrina (Cook22) in Dublin, Ireland today for da Muddermark's tea party! I am so excited; I've never been to Ireland! Sabrina is so classy and refined that we all need to be on our best behavior today (you got that, Bertie?)
Please make note that you'll definitely want to bring your hat since I understand we're at risk for bird doo-doo in our hair.....blucky, blucky poo-poo!! And, if you forget your hat, you have to come in the back door so we don't embarass Sabrina with any unwanted additions in our elegantly coiffed hairs!
I chose to use this scalloped Spellbinder die to simulate the shape of a hat, and I used Roses in Winter because that is the stamp set that immediately came to mind when I saw the inspiration teapot. My little birdies are from the Love You Much stamp set; I cut them out and popped them up with dimensionals. The speckles are from Petal Pushers. I stamped this pattern on a full sheet of white cardstock so I can use some of it again in future designs.
I hope to see you there
with no bird doo-doo in your hair!

Oh, wow! This is gorgeous!! I haven't seen RIW in such a long time. Wish I hadn't sold that set. Love the two birdies and the fact that you made this into a round card. Wonderful!!

Beautiful card, love the scallop hat that protected you from the stinky droppings. A brilliant idea to put your doves atop the rose of winter. My poo repellant is working great, otherwise I would have stolen your nice hat by now.

Charlene this is a real beauty, just like the rest of these elegant and sophisticated ladies at this quiet, danity little Dublin garden tea party! HeeHee!!
I wonder if that whole thing about the frangrance sticking to the hand is true, if so I am doomed!!! I have been buried in dino doo-doo and I am sure my breath reeks of sewer chocolate too, I will be entering through the back door via way of the bathroom for a quick clean up!
Oh and watch out for the secret agents disguised as bunnies disguised as bees, I've heard they are after one of the guests at our party, wonder who that might be?

Wow, Charlene, this looks like some of the creations I have seen at the Kentucky Derby sitting atop those fine lady's heads. I have also seen birds swooping around those same fine lady's heads. Beautiful card!
