Before you think I have gone off the deep end, check this out . It's Mothermarks teapot Tuesday challenge.
I seem to always have to come in the backdoor at these parties. Hopefully my disguise will let me sneak in the front today. LOL She said if you brought a pig, you'd have to go in the back door and be checked for the swine flu. Yeah, like that's gonna happen!
I also fitted this card in for the Color Challenge. That's why there is soooooo much white here! It is driving me crazy!!!................quickly, here's what I did...........
Stamped my chicken, I mean pig. Added the beak mask and changed his curly tail into curly feathers with dots. Also put some booties on him that look like chicken feet. Don't let the disguise fool you, he really is a pig.
Added some rather large dots to his costume. All coloring was done with copic markers except the sponging around the squiggly circle, which was then doodled around making this a one layer card.
Well, hope you like my little pig in a chicken costume. Looking forward to some of Marilynn's lemon poppy seed muffins. WHICH reminds me, that little teapot pin you see up on the corner is from none other than MariLynn. She made the teapot partiers these special pins. Isn't it darling? Thanks so much MariLynn. You're a sweetie. ...................TFL :0)

I don't see a pig - I just see a very fat, funny looking chicken. I think you get the prize for creativity today. I hope you have fun at the party (but I think all the muffins are gone - don't look at me, I didn't eat them).

Snort! I mean cockadoodledoo! Snort! Oops!! Me thinks you might wanna be a pig and come in the back door. We have lots of government officials running around, the CDC (because of the chicken~chicken pox gathering) the AFT (because of the attempt at getting the government officials schnockered so they will look the other way) and Marilynn's auditor (a CDC wannabee trying to get some experience). You might make it through the back door easier but wait.....I forgot, we have the Swine Flu testing going on there! OMG! Its hopeless this week!
You most definately get the most creative award! I love, love, love, this piggadoodledoosnortinchickiebirthdaythingy you created! The good news is he might get the attention of the government officials off the rest of our backs. You know impersonation! Yep, thats the plan!
I love your cards. You are a funny one! Snort! I mean Cockadoodle Doo!
