You're invited to a teaparty! This is this week's card along with a picture of my inspiration!
This is my story!
1. Here it is another Teapot Tuesday and I am featuring my new teapurse! I have a little story on this post on my blog (actually a long story!) about how I came upon this awesome Tangerine Teapot Tuesday Teapot Purse! Long story short, thank you Stamps4funinCA, PatSmethers, Wannabcre8tive and Virg001!! I love my little Tangerine Teapot purse!!
2. Hee! I had fun this week! I actually had to do some shopping for this one! This is the first teapot Tuesday card that I did not have the supplies I needed at home. I had to buy a orange zipper and some chain! I had this old CTMH background stamp that was almost a perfect match to the pattern of my teapurse. I stamped it and then embossed it so that it has a similar finish! Okay, so the zipper goes no where, what can I say?? I also used ka-bob skewers! Snort! Is that what they are called, little stick thingys?
3. Here is a extra challenge. In order to get in to the teaparty this week, we are checking purses at the door! So, bring something with a pocket on it, or a zipper, or some sorta something that can hold something. But just in case you don't feel like it, I hear that Gertie (thats my altered ego which is a whole nother story!) is letting pretty much anyone in the back door so if you wanna sneak in without having your purse checked, come to the back door and bring whatever you want to bring!! There are no rules at my teaparty because I have a hard time following them!

Wow, very chic purse to be totin' around The Egg and I. Nice! Bet you can fit all sorts of neato junk in there too. Do I see WWW peeking out? Humm....It tickled us so much to find that purse on our very own IRL Teapot Tuesday in Clovis MM. Next time, you wil have to join us.
Your design is incredible! If only my pea brain could get a glimpse! I love these colors, and your chain and topper are genius! Love it!

Jiminy Cricket! That is one awesome tea purse...I LOVE that you are calling it a tea purse...this is getting confusing, not pots, tea purses...the color is so awesome, and I am going to keep this party going into the weekend when I have some time! I have been missing my tea partiers! Awesome Cindy, and love the ZIPPER TO NOWHERE...sounds like a horror film or mystery novel!
