For Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday Challenge, to make a card inspired by her awesome teapot and card seen on her blog here: http://mothermark.blogspot.com/
We are playing poker, today! I heard it and brought all the chips tucked in the canvas bag I brought, under the fruit salad so the bouncers wouldn't kick us out for illegal gambling....Mothermark used acryllic paint on HER awesome card...so I upped her one acryllic paint and added SOME CRACKLE paint...ON CHIPBOARD! And the seeds from purple grapes get in my teeth, I went with the seedless variety!

Oh my gosh this is awesome. I love the grapes. That took some patience to glue those all down. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Your stems are great. Such a great job. Such super texture on your pear. I made mine too red. I really like this.. You rocked it....

Oh, this is awesome!! I love the texture on the pear and apple. I was thinking it was some kind of cool fabric... the texture looks like it. Then I seen it was made with chipboard. Wow!!! I LOVE it!! The ribbon stems and button grapes are just so cute!!!

OK MariLynn, I'm in for a felt polar bear sticker I bought on sale in the JoAnn's bin and a bunch of eyelets that have been collecting dust, and raise you the little sampler template that came with my cuttlebug that I never use (you know, the little stampy looking ones of a cupcake, baby carriage, etc...). Your deal, Dawn...

aaaack... I'm not much of a gambler!! I go to Vegas and don't even play... I'd rather spend my money and have something to show for it! I'm gonna watch you girls, and hang on to my supplies! LOL Have fun!

I'll see your sticker, eyelets and template and raise you one slightly used banana really good for painting. (I hope that is how you would phrase that, like Kris, I am not a gambler. I would never win.)

Artsey Fartsey, Tuttie Fruitti, Banana Fanna Bo Banna!
Poker, Schmoker, the Gorilla will Choke Her.
That little toot Marilynn, she took his fruit
He's acting like such a snot!
The poker table's been up-ended.
Kelly's mad and very offended.
Her hand was rotten, she says she's been gotten!
And demands the whole big pot!
I'm not involved, poker's not my game.
I'm not at all sure who was winning
All I know is the gorilla's not tame,
and he's left the teapotters spinning!
The grapes are buttons, the pears are fabric the stems are made of ribbon.
If I said this card was not creative, I most certainly would be fibbin!
After looking at everyone's cards today, we have a new rule!
The tea potters cards can not be better than the hostess. I am thinking up a punishment! Snort!
