Lisa aka Shoe Girl gave us a humorous challenge today!
I finally came up with an idea for my card and it stems from a family get together at my oldest sons house.
The family was sitting around at the dinning room table eating dinner and my son's three year old little girl was telling us all about her stuffed animals of the sea. She had just gotten a new large dolphin one!
She starts to name all the stuffed creatures she has that live in the ocean, one of them an octopus. My DH, and her grandfather, asked her the question, "How many legs does an octopus have?" Now you have to know that my DH loves to quiz his grandchildren and his children on facts! He believes he has more knowledge then them! LOL!!
Well she very quickly answered him after he asked again, "How many legs does an octopus have?" and she said "All of Them!" The entire family started laughing, that it took a 3 year old to stump grandpa!!
Thanks for the wonderful memories, Lisa with this challenge.
See the next post for the inside of the card! I am saving this card for my DH birthday later this summer!

these are delightful, Ann. And your story with your dear granddaughter is charming...and often times the very best humor...children are so literal...it's a hoot.
Yeah your artful creations today.
