Don't forget that you can take inspiration from the Teapot or cookies.

Susie, I have a question...what's with the extra cookies for using a hat? Is is because the woman on the teapot has one on or was it just a random thing? Just wondering...;)

You'll have to imagine what kind of hat you might wear if you were climbing mountains:

No hat - but I did use the one layer paper tole. I didn't think it would work with any images I have with hats
 .Rubbing the foam off the stamp so that I could use it unmounted reminded me of Susie's description of rubbing pencils shavings and feeling as if she had no fingerprints left afterwards (https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/g...dermatoglyphia)  . It also took up far too much of my afternoon, but at least it will be all set to go next time I want to use the stamp. MMTPT624 Sunshine and a Bug |

Good question Polly. I was trying to think of something that women and men use or do, just in case a Teapotter wanted to make their card for both Janet and Bruce. Hats was the first thing I thought of, which is funny because the original card I made for them didn't have a hat LOL. The gallery looks great, I'm off to comment now |
my card for Janet---no hat but flowers and dragonflies

Thanks for making me paper piece. I really like it, but I chose something too small! EEK! |
