This week's card was specially made for Andrew. I drew Dawson the bassethound. He has all his gear ready to go to the world series. The inside of the card says "Andrew, sorry to hear that you have been having a "RUFF" time. I'm sending get well prayers your way."
I made a spiral pop up and used my circle punch to make little baseballs that pop up on the spiral.

Hey there Miss McGyver! I shoulda know you would bring action to your card (McGyver style) by having baseballs hurled at Andrew when he opens this card! Talk about your creativity! Whoo Hoo! Ole Dawson is looking pretty good I would say! And look! He has a little clearance under that round barrel belly of his. I think that might be just enough to get over a base or two! Woot!
Its absolutely precious Marilynn and the sentiment is right on! Thank you, thank you, thank you for volunteering. You girls made this so special for Andrew! It warms my heart! Go Andrew! Go Dawson! Go Miss McGyver! Your rocked this challenge girlfriend!

Cute drawing! It's sure to be a hit with Andrew and his team. Using the team colors for your card and the spiral inside are awesome touches they are sure to love as well! Hugs, Trish

Dawson is such a cute bassethound MariLynn, you did a wonderful job with him and his little accessories. I really like the idea of a spiral pop-out card for a young'un...you thought of everything and this is definitely one for the team!! You go girl!!

Wonderful drawing, MariLynn. And cool inside, too, Cards with fun interactive elements are great for kids of all ages, and I am sure Andrew will really enjoy that surprise inside.

MariLynn, first of all, thank you for your sweet comment on my doggie card today. How nice!
Your card is so cute, and so much thought put into it! I love the doggie, especially his big ears! And how fun, that you made the spiral pop up in the inside. Andrew is going to have fun with this one!
