For Teapot Tuesday. This week the teapotters are having tea at the grand opening of Flourish Tattoo & Tea Parlor. Felicity is here to greet us, proudly standing against the back wall mural of the parlor. She is doing her best to cater to a more upscale clientele than Lou’s former sailor/biker types & hopes to attract the “ladies who lunch” group. Felicity is sure the new jingle on the local radio stations will help. The jingle is a take on the old song Tea for Two & goes like this: “Tea for two, tattoos & tea, one for you & another for me”. Felicity & Lou are very much in love after Lou was able to successfully tattoo an elegant flourish on Felicity’s skin. Where is it, you ask? Why it is on her lower right cheek. No, not that cheek. The one under her skirt where only Lou will see it.
My flourish panel is a scanned, resized & printed on blue image from a Bicycle playing card.
One last thing: Why should a young woman never get a rose tattooed on her breast? Because as she ages it becomes “long stemmed”.

OMGosh, Vicky, this is so fabulous. So glad you added the shop's name too. I had already forgotten that part of our TPT.
I totally think your creativity was cranked up high for this card. Whoa, what a grand card for Michelle.

Love your little joke at the end - gave me a good giggle!
How creative you are - I would have never thought to use that on a card - and it turned out wonderfully! Now if that were a real tatoo - that would be hours upon hours of being under the needle!
