This week's Teapot Tuesday cards are going to Kay in Winnipeg, Manitob, Canada. She is the soon to be 91 year old grandmother of fellow SCSer and Teapotter crystaldolphins - Charlene. She's been dealing with some difficult health issues since she fell on the ice last February and broke her elbow, so we're sending her some cheer and lots of tulips. If you would like to join us and play along you can learn more about it here.
Stamped the PSX tulips stamp, colored with Copics and colored the background and made a table using Copics so it would look like a still life painting. Cut out a frame, drew the fake stained glass and colored with Copics and glued on top of tulips.
Thanks for looking.

Wow, your background captures the feel of the inspiration piece so well. I like yours more for making me think of a beach. The beach nearest where I grew up was big stones like that , but at least once you were out swimming there was some finer shingle under foot that didn't feel so slimy. There were a lot of grey stones, which looked like your purple colour when they were wet. Nothing slimy about this ;-), it's lovely.

WOW!!! This is BEAUTIFUL!!! I know you have the bg to look like stained glass, but to me it looks like stream rocks! This could be a vase of tulips on a mantel the way I see it!

Now, here is what I think! I think those colors are awesome together. Would I have ever put them together? Probably not, unless they were on a teapot somewhere! Snort! What a beautiful boquet of tulips sitting in the window of the rock castle! Ooh.....awesome card!
