* This card is for my good friend Cindy aka Mothermark on SCS. Cindy is today's featured stamper on SCS - congratulations Cindy you deserve it!!!!!! I have long been an admirer of her artwork.
* When Cindy posts a card to the SCS gallery she always starts her explanation with "This is my story" and normally has something hilarious to tell us. She normally posts just before I go to bed so I like to call these my bedtime stories.
* I recently ordered some stamps from Eat Cake Graphics, while browsing their catty I came across this chicken stamp which made me think of Cindy - as she works at the 'Egg & I' Restaurant. I knew I had to buy it and make a card for Cindy.
* Cindy is very close to Gerti!!!
* You can find the card I used to CASE this card here:Go Fly a Kite! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers. I made the following changes:
o changed the image used;
o changed the colors;
o changed the orientation of the card;
o substituted the "Gerti" piece for the kite.

OMG! Frances! What an awesome card you made...I am just loving it! What a special, special card.....I can't wait to get it....you are gonna be mailing it to me aren't you? I love these three little chickens....and look at them sitting on the beach looking out towards the ocean making sure their other 5 buddies are still afloat! Thank you so much and thank you for your awesome friendship. I am so proud to be a part of your nightly get ready for bed routine! Yikes, I hope those nights when you have insomnia is for other reasons!
I am looking at this wondering what their stories are all about. Probably about the reason that one friend of theirs is out there flailing (sp?) in the water especially after just last week when she was bragging about her olympic hopeful days in High School. Well, maybe it was a different sport! You made my day and how wonderful that you included Gerti too...She will be harder to control today, but it's worth it!

What a fabulously fun and special card, Frances! Gerti does love those chickens and you found some cool ones. I gotta get some of those snap stamps; it's so cool how you were able to spell out This is My Story.
