This is my card for today's sketch challenge. This is my story:
1. Is a chicken a bird?
2. I was required by another challenge to put a bird on this birthday card.
3. I used a chicken.
3. I say a chicken is a bird.
4. May 7, 2008. That's the day you can use a chicken on a birthday card that is supposed to have a bird on it!
5. Oops! Looks like I put 3 chickens on this birthday card. May 7, 2008, that's the day you can put 3 chickens on a birthday card that is supposed to have a bird on it.
I made this card for Ila....she is turning 60 on May 12th. Her sis is trying for 60 birthday cards for 60 years. You can read about her here:

Love the blue and yellow. The checkerboard and polka dots are fabulous. I agree...chickens are birds. Cindy, you are so thoughtful. I'll send one, too.

Of course chickens are birds, they have feathers don't they.
Vicky, your card is so cute and your story a touching one. I will put a card in the mail today.
I love the way that you displayed the 60, awesome colors they really pop. Great job with this challenge.

Awesome card. I am almost afraid to mail my card to her. It can't compare to this. I love how you have the birds, I mean chickens holding the *happy* and the 6 and 0 in their beaks. Too cute!!
