Welcome to Teapot Tuesday the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty and Challenge #483 Oh Palm Tree, Oh Palm Tree...??? Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun! The Rest of the Story: 1: Have you ever wondered what people in other areas do to make it feel more like Christmas? I know palm trees just doesn't convey the same message does it? Well, that was the fix the Mini twins were in. You see, they just got relocated to sunny California. 2: And now it's coming upon Christmas season and there isn't a fir tree in sight, nor a snowflake for miles and miles. Whatever are they going to do. Christmas just isn't Christmas without the right atmosphere. So they determined to make their own atmosphere. RUTROH!! this is sounding scary already. 3: So, first on the list was the tree; a potted pine would have to do for that and with a little trimming and tinsel dripping it should do fine. Now for the snow; they read online of a snow making machine that ski lodges use!! BAM!! That's what we need, and set about finding out where to rent one. Then for the smell factor. 4: Now, we are talking really scary here as they are mixing and stirring and trying to come up with the right "smell of Christmas" Hopefully they don't burn the house down with their concoctions. Jr. Science kits really are a dangerous thing (don't ask me how I know this) Challenge Translation: Christmas carols, ornaments, trees, sleds and even teddy bears. Bring them along and help get this party started. Destination Station: This week the teaparty bus is headed to CA. The land of sunshine. If you would like a destination for your card, how about sending them to CalVets to be put in Christmas gift bags for residents at Veteran's home. to find out why as well as get the address to mail your card, please visit post 588 in the Teapot Tuesday Destination Station thread. Please remember that just because you participate in a Teapot Tuesday challenge that is combined with a card drive request, it does not mean that you are REQUIRED to send your cards. It is totally 100% voluntary! Here is a quick link to MMTPT483 challenge gallery Be sure to you use KEYWORD MMTPT483 in your upload and post a comment here so we can all see your card! Ever want to get a jump on next week's challenge card? SCS has given Sheri (KSNurse) permission to create an email Teapot Tuesday Cheater Group and email the challenge out on the Saturday before the Tuesday of the challenge so you girls can have the weekend to make your card. Send her a pm with your email address if you wanna be a Cheater! If you are confused about these challenges, see the first sticky post of this thread for more information.

dotty tree
here's my dotty tree I took my inspiration from a Christmas in Hawaii one year- they had a tree festooned with white crepe paper- so I used my icicles die and some stickles for sparkle. Went with a dotted background, adding texture with some fun foam dots I recycled.
