Hooooowwwwdieeee! Bertie here, and I'm mightee 'cited to be tellin' ya that Maureen Vollaro is our Teapot Tuesday party hostess, and she has arranged fer the tea partiers to party on down at the Grand Ole Opry right along with Mr. Johnny Cash!!! All we have to do fer front-door entrance to today's party is bring a card with any of the following: A rose (or our favorite flower), country song theme, Johnny Cash Theme, or a card fer our daughter/mother.
I'm bringin' my card of paper roses; I'll be singin' Marie Osmond's Paper Roses; and I'll be totin' a jug of tea moonshine. Yeesssirreeee! Here's the song I'll be singin' for Mr. Johnny Cash:
With tender looks that I mistook for love
So take away the flowers that you gave me
And send the kind that you remind me of
Paper roses, paper roses
Oh how real those roses seem to be
But they're only im-ita-tion
Like your imitation love for me
I thought that you would be a perfect lover
You seemed so full of sweetness at the start
But like a big red rose that's made of paper
There isn't any sweetness in your heart
Paper roses, paper roses
Oh how real those roses seem to be
But they're only im-ita-tion
Like your imitation love for me
You kin git all the party details from the challenge forum under Teapot Tuesday MMTPT69. I hope ya'll come and join in on the fun!
Thanks fer fillin' in fer da Muddermark and hostessin' a mighteeeee fine party, Maureen!!

I already told you how pretty I thought this was. But now I look again, I hadn't noticed the way you'd used the little flower in the centre of the rose - how clever and how lovely! And I love the little dew drops on the rose, too.

Mercy sakes....Bertie is outta control!!!!! That's ok cuz she doesn't get out often...most of the time she is locked up in her studio munching on M's and tipping a few...that must be where the still is...Whoohoo!!!! Looks like Charlene made this beautiful card....love, love, love that gorgeous flower!!!! Remember, I get to sit by Bertie at the tea party....I bet the fumes will get me high!!!! Oh, btw, I'm a Beatles baby so I'll bring the yellow submarine...no JC for this cookie...LOL!!!

I'm a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll! Yeah! Charlene! What a beautiful rose. The dew drop touch is fabulous! With Bertie running amok and swilling moon shine, I guess I will have to be designated driver! Maybe I'll have to drive the Twisted Sistah school bus to fit all you rowdies in!!
