This is for Teapot Tuesday's challenge this week. See here for the story and the destination station information as well: MMTPT104 ~ RAMBLIN' RICKY? JABBERIN' JOE? OH NO! MOE IS TOO SLOW! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
Here is my story:
So Moe is too slow . . . that’s how it goes. Harriet and Honey Heifer have a huge crush on Moe and they know he won’t go any faster so they figured they will have to slow Rickie and Joe down to a much slower pace. Harriet discovered that Joe laughs at corny jokes – he laughs so hard he can barely breathe and milk flies out his nose. Rickie get sick when Joe does stuff like that and can’t talk at all. So Harriet and Honey decide to hold up jokes on banners to make Joe start laughing and Rickie stop talking, because that’s the only way Moe has a chance. They also heard that laughter is the best medicine and thought the kids at Akron Children’s Hospital burn unit could really use a giggle – got the idea from Lisa Lara. (Oh and the answer is – of course – a Cow walking backwards)
Everything is digital from the web - cows are some unknown coloring book source colored with copics. Holstein paper was from a site that had it as a color sample for home goods (downloaded it a while ago for another project and forgot the source – sorry). Gingham paper is digital from http://www.scrapbookscrapbook.com
