Say, did you happen to see the Hallmark Special on TV Sunday? If you did, did you happen to catch Curt's "cameo"? He was the Happy black and white cow. That Curt, he just seems to show up everywhere.....like outside this Texas Bird n Breakfast wearing a billboard. Confused? Go here to see what the heck I'm babbling about.....then come back for a quick story...
Curt herd about Beulah, The Bluebird and her dilemma. You see she is now the owner of the Texas Bird n Breakfast but doesn't know how to attract customers. That's where Curt comes in. He's a walking billboard of advertisement. Plus he brought a small token gift in the red wagon for the Red Lexus owners. Always the thoughtful Cow. Hope those cobblestones aren't to rough on his hoofs!
...Oh, the mustache gang holding up my card are friends of Curt's. Crazy me, I opened up a drawer and Wal-la there they were. Don't remember buying them but glad I have them. One more thing, whoever is to the left of me I want to apologize for the smudged sign Curt is holding in his mouth. Somehow it got smeared right at the end. Wanted to blame it on the sign maker, but that would be ME! hehe
My day started off with a bummer, one of my parakeets passed on to the big bird house in the sky. So I was sad. But then after viewing some of the amazing teapot cards today, I am feeling much better! .....Thanks for stopping by! :0)

Oh my - this is the cutest Curt card yet!! I love it and I love your 'card holder' too.
Sorry about your parakeet, it's always sad to lose a pet. It's nice to get some cheering up here at the teaparty.

First I want to give my condolences to you for your little parakeet, I know how these sweet creatures are a part of our families.
I love this card, Cathy!! I am so glad that Curt is out advertising for the B & B!! Curt is ever the entrepreneur!! I really like your cow shakers too!! Darn I sure wish I was to the left of you. I'd love to have one of your spectacular creations!!
I am glad that I went right to your card this afternoon. I am very sad right now, as I have found out that the Norfolk eagle mama was struck and killed by a landing jet plane this morning. The eaglets are wondering where their mama is, and Dad eagle is lost too. But dad did come in just awhile ago with a fish and fed the 3 eaglets. There is hope for these 3, that Dad will do a great job of filling in for Mom.
Again, my condolences to you for your little parakeet family member.

Cathy,
Sorry about your parakeet.
Your card is really awesome. It seems like people were trying to get next to you in the gallery to get one of your Mutnik works of art! Look how cute Curt is today - with his tweet little friend and his little wagon. Love your cards!

Aww...I am so sorry to hear about your birdie, Curthy! You sure had lots of birdies to view today though, glad you feel better!
Sorry I was so late in coming to greet you! I am lending Kate one of my dresses for her wedding and she and William came to pick it up today! Personally I don't know why they waited so long! I thought I would never get rid of them so I could comment on your card! Ha!
OMG! I love those dudes you found in the drawer! I love that Curt is always quick to promote some new money making scheme....okay, how much stock did he get in exchange for heading up the marketing plan! We all know that its mooooo-lah that drives Curt the Squirt!
Lucky teapotter to the left.......I love this card and so will the lefty! It rocks...you are such a goofball, yah, I said goofball!
