Well the teaparty is traveling south this week to the grand old city of New Orleans, or 'Nawlins as we say in the south. I've got a delicious hand made King Cake complete with the little baby doll inside! Packed up a bunch of beads and wrapped them up purty in this gift box because I didn't want anyone getting the wrong idea about me thinking I had gotten my beads doing something else! I brought some balloons too, but I'm down to one now because Curt came over to sniff my cake and popped one with his horns and some giant dragon popped some when I asked him to light the candle on my cake. I needed a little light to make it easier to find my way to Martie's. Martie's gonna be bringing in the dough before long!

This is such a cute card! I love the fun image and the great colors you chose! Can't wait to try your homemade King's Cake! Glad you brought some more beads - even all the beads we brought are gone!

And you even have a fork for eating the cake - smart thinking, there. The party is definitely happening here, with your balloon and all those streamers. Now, what sort of beads are in that package, I wonder. I had some green, gold and purple, but they were just too much to add to the card.

If you've got the cake, I want to sit next to you.
This is such a cute image, and I like how you used the Mardi Gras colors without it screaming "mardi gras"

Wowwee! This fun gal knows how to Party! Ahem, I was wondering if anyone was going to mention the bead issue. Um, where did you get the ones you put in the gift box? I KNOW I would get shirts instead of beads!

Hey, guys! $42,000 award to someone who can figure out how to get Curt down from those balloons flying around Martie's Place! And yes, Mr. Dragon, that includes you, you are eligible. Just don't hurt him! WE got lots of balloons floating around here and just can't take the risk any longer!
Guess what? I can balance a burf-day package on my toe!! I know its hard to believe but I been practicing since you uploaded this card and simply have it mastered! Snort!
This is the coolest! What a fun little party girl. The epitome of multi-tasking.....The most important part is the fork....and well, the cake! Put the two together and yummy, yummy, yummy! Your card is awesome!!!
