Breakfast at Tiffany's and I am bringing something I LOVE and that makes me happy. I just love gumball macines. The bright colors and different shapes. Love 'em. And since it is Tiffany's somewhere hidden in the gumballs just might be a diamond. Hmmmmm.....anybody got some change? I remember when the tiny gumballs were just a penny as a kid. Dating myself aren't I, hee. Come follow me to Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday Challenge #77:Forums at Splitcoaststampers

Okay, who's the wise-guy that put that teapot on Audrey's head? And I don't care if they did it cuz they were trying to cover up her bee hive dooooo!!
Oh, Hi Lisa! So glad you could come! OMG! I love gum ball machines too! And guess what? I have heard you can get really awesome engagement rings out of them for dirt cheap so I betcha you are right about there being one in your precious little machine! But don't tell snooty Joanne, she won't like the competition and she told us we might have to buy something here if we eat and drink alot! Don't tell the other girls, I didn't tell them that part of the story cuz I thought they wouldn't come if I did! Yikes!

Gum smacking, champagne corks popping, giggles all around. I just knew this was going to be a noisy party. Cute and clever idea for your card.
You can remember when gum balls were a penny. I can remember when there were no gum balls!
