This week for the Teapotters is Tickle a Teapotter week. Whoohoo, yippee!! This means that we'll be sending our cards off to who know who. It's all a big surprise until you get your card in the mail. This is our reward for being the fun loving (whacky) and considerate folks we are.
This week we're off on a cruise. Now those things scare the bejeezers out of me, what with all that food that's there to eat. I'd have to run the decks from sun-up to sun down to keep all that food from going to my rear, dear! I say, just get me to the beach and I'm a happy sunbather!
Thus, I brought the bathing suits, though I really should have brought a pareo too! They say that vertical stripes are slimming, so there's one suit for that and the other is for say the first day or two, before I've gotten my hands on all that food. Maybe the gazers and lookers will just see the wonderful bling that adorns the suits and thongs. Do my toes look fat?!
I cheated to make these suits. I copied the suit that's in the latest PC mag, enlarged it and used it for my template. I did change the necklines, just to make them a little more unique, one being the Labels 10 nestie and the other the longer scalloped oval nestie.
The orange and pink suit is actually a card. I attached the thongs to it so they wouldn't get lost or stolen, since the bling is mighty fine lookin'.

These are most gorgeous suits Jennifer!! I of course would take the one with the stripes - I need all the help I can get. And when you said thongs, I don't know why, but my mind was thinking of those nasty suits that go up the butt. There most certainly will be none of that for me. I know you were talking about the sandal type thongs, I'm just sharing where my mind went. What's the matter with me??!!

How cute! A cruise sounds great about now, but I guess I will have to do an arm chair one with a glass of iced tea.
Some lucky lady will be charmed with this card.

AMAZING - and oh sooo fun!! I love your taste in swimware, and love your logic with keeping the stripes for after a few days into the trip LOL. Seriously though - your cards are awesome!
