Today for Mothermark's Teapot challenge we are flying to Dublin! Why don't you join us? We have such a great time plus you would understand the babble below! Teapot Tuesday #54 Teapot and Card by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
I think getting to meet Sabrina is so exciting and having tea at the botanic gardens the very thing to do when in Ireland.I will be wearing a hat believe you me.
I don't have any bird stamp that even closely resembles a white dove so I went with a stamp that kinda looks like the mourning doves in my backyard. Do you have mourning doves Sabrina? The roses, yellow flowers and birds are all on dimensionals. Each of the yellow flowers has stickles in the middle.

Very well done there! I love your roses, how pretty. Good to see you at the party. Well, I have only seen Carla so far, she is the only one who dare have some of my chocolates.
You can read what happened to me, and please have a heart and do come an sit down with me. I feel so alone here at the other end of the garden.

I've never even heard of mourning doves - we have collared ones, and that's about it. But I don't have any dove-like stamps either, so I think these are lovely. Almost any birds are welcome, excpet magpies and pigeons. Those are really lovely roses!

Love your mourning dove look a likes. Sabrina, I have some of these birds that frequent my bird feeder. They get so fat, sometimes they just walk around on the ground because they get to heavy to fly! LOL ...APandi, your card is gorgeous. Those roses, and mourning doves and sentiment are simply lovely. Well, I see Peggy at the other end of the gardens, think I'll go keep her company. I hear she has chocolates! TFS :0)

Mouring Doves or Morning Doves? They (both) are everywhere! That's why we have hats on! Your roses are gorgeous, its why the birds showed up and the layout and the way everything is cut out and popped up just rocks! Isn't it beautiful here in Ireland Marilynn? Ooh.....be careful don't step on that big pile of flowers....err, I mean Peggy! Any minute her head will pop up and she will be ranting and raving about some Vincent dude and chocolates! Oohh......be careful!
So happy you are not at the cabin but in Ireland with us! Where should we spend our frequent flyer miles????

Your roses are so lovely and fragrant, Marilyn! Awwwwww! Thanks for bringing this sweet fragrance to the tea party today, especially since Peggy brought chocolates from the sewer (and some of the girls are even eating them! ugh!). Such a pretty card!

This card is so pretty. I love the sentiment panel. That is my FAVORITE stamp of all times. I think it has all the perfect words. Super job on this teapot card.

I love Roses...I have a rose garden...a grandaughter Rose who is the love of my life and my Friend Rose that gets into trouble with Bertie...! I tell her before every tea party to stay away from Bertie..but Bertie seems to attract Rose and together they get into trouble...!!!
Anyway..you card is beautiful...and you did a great job on those roses...TFS
