Squeak! The Road to a Friend's House

Speaking of friends, my sweet and funny friend, Peggy (aka marilynprestonn on SCS) is hostessing the Teapot Tuesday challenge this week, and, boy, has Peggy come up with a really darling teapot and story. That girl has a wonderful sense of humor! We're having the tea party at the Rodent's House! My friend Sabrina (cook22) is a little skeered of mice (aren't most of us?), but Peg-a-roo has reassured her that these mice are all friendly. However, I'm a little concerned that Marilyn's (apandi) elephant might not share those sentiments. Check out the details here, and I hope you'll consider playing along with us.

Oh, just a word of caution: Peggy says Mama Teeny is serving up a special eggnog concoction in the punch bowl. After I read the ingredients, I definitely made a mental note to abstain. Even Bertie (my alter ego) has said she will not be partaking of this libation! However, if YOU do decide to partake, I noticed that Judi (aka jovial judi) has brought some candy canes to the party to mask the smell.

I think you can pretty much figure out that I drew upon the door and the mice from the inspiration teapot for my card. I masked my little mousie holding his ornament and stamped the door scene (The Journey designed by Asela Hopkins and distributed by Gina K. Designs) over him. I colored everything with my Copic markers.

Carla (cmsuto) and Joanne (sleepyinseattle) brought their darling houses if you need a place to hide from all the mice or a place to crash if you do drink that eggnog. I'm thinking Marilyn's (apandi) elephant might have a tough time fitting into one of these teeny tiny homes, but I'm sure he's gonna be freakin' out over all da mice runnin' around.

Well, I'm off to go join my other friend, Cathy (aka Mutnik) and her teacup of mouse-a-partiers. They look like they are having a blast!
