This week is Tickle a Teapotter week! Whoohoo! And this week, it all about summer vacation! So pack up your bags, cuz were headed out to some pretty fantastic destinations!
The USA is full of many wonders, from man made to nature made. From the tropical waters of Florida, to the place where millions of immigrants passed through on there way to becoming Americans. There's Purple Mountains majesty, beautiful desert sunsets, the home of the Liberty Bell, and the great Northwest where dreams have been made. From shore to shore there is so much to see within the USA. Just a little beyond the Western shores, you have islands of paradise. With so much at hand, it's hard to choose a destination. wherever you go, whatever you do, enjoy the beautiful bounty of USA.
This card came to fruition from the generosity of Kathleen (Lammie). Kathleen sent this Inkadinkado set of stamps to me, with a note saying it may come in handy for a Tea Party. And it certainly did! Thank you Kathleen!
This is a 5x7 step card, not your norm.
Okay, now I'm ready to take a road trip, I feel the desert Southwest calling.
