This is my card this week's Teaparty - We are going to the "A-Card-&-Me Awards" - that's the Teapotter's version of the Academy Awards, and we are doing it up BIG TIME, bringing the Best of the Best or the Worst of the Worst!!
For my card, I decided we will be elegant! Charm that Clancy into choosing us as his new leading lady. Going for the The Best of the Best Category:
~ Elegance! Best clothes, hats, jewelry, manners, automobile! ANYTHING and EVERYTHING ELEGANT!
This week's teaparty is to bring some smiles to Lauren whose health problems are greatly hindering her goals, dreams and persistance to succeed in the industry that is so passionate to her. See the story HERE
Hopefully the cards we bring to the A-Card-&-Me Awards will cheer her up while she is getting through these difficult days.
I stamped Greta #as in Greta Garbo - a classy leading lady if there ever was one# then colored her with reinkers, but kept her dress in polka dots, like the teapot! Sponged around her, then spritzed with shimmery champagne - of COURSE, CHAMPAGNE - we are ELEGANT WINNERS!! then cut out with a nestie. We just arrived at the Theatre, and exited the stretch limo and we are now poised to take the WALK down that red carpet and do it with such class, that everyone else will be positively mesmerized, especially Clancy, who will beg Greta to be his new leading lady!!
Hope this card and my feeble attempt at a story #no one beats da Mudder at that!# has been able to get a chuckle out of Lauren. If you would like to join the teaparty challenge this week, please put MMTPT134 in your keywords to put a smile on Lauren's face. Thanks for joining us!

Glamorous for sure. Fabulous red carpet and I love those stars. Greta obviously has stars in her eyes and she deserves to be a winner. If she brings a smile to Lauren, as she surely will, she's already winning .

Wow, Sue! This is gorgeous! Those bright, shiny, red stars are just perfect for this card. Your sponging around that elegant lady with Basic Gray makes her stand out so much more.
