Hello. I'm Markie. My mom is Markie's Mom. I make cards all by myself. I have my own paper cutter. I got it for Christmas. And, I used my Christmas money to buy Sizzix dies and Cuttle Bug dies for my mom's Big Shot.
I made this card for today's color challege. The colors are Brilliant Blue, Garden Green and Pumpkin Pie. I hate to say this, but these are Florida Gator colors...My dad went to FSU. There is no way Dad would let the card stay in the house. hahaha
The UPS guy came last night with a box for me from Ms. NancyRuth! I was asleep, so I got to open the box at breakfast . It had cool papers and stickers. And, it had bubble gum! I love bubble gum. I'm sending her this card as a thank you.
I used my new Sizzix train die. It was $20. I used my 50% coupon at Michaels. The train track was made with a Cuttle bug die. I went back to Michaels the next day and used my mom's coupon on it. I had to cut two and glue them together.
The bunnies are a punch. It's made by Martha Stewart.
I stamped the smoke from a set that I got as a Christmas gift from Jessica at There She Goes. The puffs are really clouds. It has a cool rainbow, too.
I drew the hat and cut it out. It was not easy. I drew a lot of hats.
I hope you like it.

Markie, I love your card. The bunnies were a great add and love the hat. You are not the only one who thought of football with these colors. The blue and orange is defiantly Denver Broncos.
