For Teapot Tuesday 65 (look, it has its own forum now -- go visit Forums at Splitcoaststampers.
Today, the tea party gang is visiting the home of Blanca and Blacken White. Sadly, Blacken White doesn't like color and only allows black and white in his home. Mrs. White has finally gotten fed up, and she's invited us to bring color to her home. I figured Blacken can't object to colorful fruit, can he? (If anyone wants to read any commentary into what I think of Mr. Blacken White from the theme of this card, go ahead. He does seem like he'd be a sourpuss doesn't he?)
Also for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge #39, using border punches. (http://flourishesnewsletter.blogspot...uesday_25.html)

Yah, you go girl! Blacken, the sourpuss! Hopefully these lemons will make him pucker up so hard he won't be able to communicate when the tea potters start brightening up the place! Good sentiment, good advice! Love this little card. Lemons can be lovely, can't they? Except when you are married to one! Snort!

Looks like the teaparty is infiltrating the FTTC today . Your subtext makes me think of that song - Lemon Tree, very pretty...is Blacken impossible to live with just as the lemon fruit is impossible to eat? I can just imagine the lovely citrus smell.

This is so pretty. I love the colors. The blues and yellows really compliment eachother. I love fresh lemons. I had a lemon tree in my yard in Phoenix when I was growing up. The stuff in the stores can't compare to the real stuff.

Such pretty colors, and I love the Lime Rickey dp. I like your play on Mr. Blacken being a sourpuss, too! Should we serve him some of Bertie's pea soup with these lemons? Bwaa-haa-haa!
