Oh am I ever late for the Teapot party. Here I am at last...well, as I was searching for a solution to help Santa, I thought maybe my New Zealand lambs could deliver the toys this year. Being as they are used to the cold weather already.
But as I was getting them ready for their first launch, this cute reindeer named Jan came along strutting her stuff with big eye lashes and in a matter of seconds she had splashed DD (disorientation die) on them. After that, it was confusion city!!! I think I will need just a little more time to readjust their radars so they can be of any help at all.
My little lambs names are Cautious, Nauseous, Silly, Giddy, Pee-Wee, Sea-Weed, Subito, Presto and Marianna de La Vila des La Noche de la Nueve Marquis!

Oh Peggy -- these are very cute wee lambs ... I must say I have never seen any here in NZ that are these colours ... they would make the hills sides so much prettier in these shades ... NZ lambs are very strong and fast so I am sure they would get Santa up off the snow .... very fun story and fun card

Peggy - your little lambs are so cute - are you sure they aren't dancing after seeing the new MJ movie - you may not have a GPS issue at all! Which one is Marianna - she has got to be one of the liveliest of the bunch. I always wish my Mom would have named me something like that - Nancy is so boring and they say people often live up to their names. My best friend growing up was Veronica Marie Elizabeth Blandiana Salas or something like that, and I was plain old Nancy Ann (and those two names are actually forms of each other!). Great job!

Way to go Peggy - love those New Zealand Sheep - you got it right girl!! This is such a great card and motivates me to get to the TeaParty - we had a lamb as kids, we hand fed it milk with a beer bottle with a teat on it and were so sad to have to give it to the Indian family across the street when we moved house - we were devastated to learn they had curried it and had it for Christmas lunch - awww - the heartache as little children!! One less lamb in NZ! LOL! Love this card my friend! Thansk for sharing!! God bless you!! {{{hugs}}}

How strange to see the French cardinal points on the compass - I was looking at the NO and wondering, till my brain got into gear. That's some pedigree Marianna has - save her wool for me and I'll knit you an extra-special something. With the stars you've provided, I am sure that naughty Jan's DD won't have too much effect and your little sheep will still be able to navigate in the right direction.

OMG! Sorry I am so late to greet you but it took me 42,000 hours to fill out the reindeer registration paperwork for nine New Zealand sheep that arrived to save Christmas. I was doing pretty good until the last one! I just could not get the name right! Who'd a thunk a sheep would have 42,000 different names. I kept getting them out of order and she kept snorting and pawing the ground until I tried again! The only way I could double check if I included all the names was to count all the parts of the name.....
you know....1...........2...........3..........4...... ......5.......6
and so on......that in turn made all the elves fall asleep and Mrs. Claus was back in a panic! They have work to do! Whew! Sorry Peggy, but I am here now!
Oh my....it's YOU! You brought the sheep! Can we come up with a nic name for old what's her doodle? Bwahaha!
This card rocks, and very much worth the wait! Hee! Love your creativity and the color! You should send this to CrazyKim, she's from New Zealand and your sheep could go home! Giggle!

Peggy, what a mind you have!! Creative mind that is. How cute is your card and your story. I wonder if Jan has blown her chances will all that mischief. She does seem to be a bit of a distraction!! However, your little guys are all linked up so there's strength in numbers and I'm sure they'll get it all sorted out.
