Loop-de-loop is a very exciting thing to doÂ… and we all want to see this doneÂ… so I am bringing my southern style snowboardÂ… garbage can lidsÂ… they are used for everything down hereÂ… especially at this time of the year when you have to fight off low flying roosters and hens, that are trying to create more.. you can hit them once and they leave you alone.. great things these garbage can lidsÂ… anyway.. I will bring a couple of extra and maybe we can get Abner up on them and he can try his luck too..
I think that when you have to live in an all white world adding color is very importantÂ… so I have chosen one of the secondary softer colorsÂ… a combination of yellow and blueÂ… a little of this and a little of that.. you get the ideaÂ… right??? Anyway I have picked 42,000 daisies and put 42,000 emeralds into the center of themÂ… this is to represent the love that we want to show AbnerÂ… I donÂ’tÂ’ want him to flip out with a lot of wild colors.. so I have brought some green foods too.. just to get him use to eating green tooÂ… GREEN tea, Green salad, Green Zucchini, Green peppers, and Green Cucumbers, along with some GREEN mint JulipsÂ… can we have those hereÂ… well I brought them along anywayÂ… and those who want them can have them.. but there is Green teaÂ… and that is very good for you.. . I also brought some Chocolate mint ice creamÂ… and so hopefully he will love all the green I have brought for himÂ…
I also dug out my coverallsÂ… which are also GREENÂ… and will wear those to keep my legs warmÂ… also some green leg warmers and a green hatÂ… I think I even have some green mittensÂ… Green is my color todayÂ… did I tell you that???
Well I hear have everything packed and will be leaving in a little whileÂ… you might here me coming down the road, as the garbage can lids had to be tied to the back of my carÂ… there was no room inside the car for them with the foodÂ… LOLÂ… hope to see you thereÂ….
This card was made with Bazzill papers, and I also used a cuddlebug for the background, showing all the Loop-de-loopsÂ… and the border represents the flowers.. .all 42,000 of themÂ… oh yes plus oneÂ… on the oval.. which I used my spellbinderÂ… the flower and stems are drawn by meÂ… layer and popped to give dimensionÂ… and painted with my Twinkling H20Â’sÂ…
Hope to see you thereÂ… look for me in the Green CoverallsÂ… you really will not be able to miss meÂ… believe meÂ… it is a sight to beholdÂ…

Garbage can lids as in Giant Abdominable Snowman symbals? Whoo Hoo...we have music while we are loop-de-loopin'!
Bonnie...I am so glad you made this sample card for me today...cuz you set the stage for some wonderful color for Ole Abner! I love the greens.......and even though Abner is sick of white, your card is rocking a wonderful stark white background! Beautifully done! I just love it!

bonnie, I didnt see you, but i sure did hear you go by. Yikes, girl, what a contraption that car of yours is now with all those dang garbage lids. You southern girls think of everything 42,000 times better than us northerners. Wonderful card. I do believe Abner gonna be right happy to see the likes of you pull up with all those lids and that food. Forget the lids and let's get to the heart of the matter here: let's eat first and then untie all those clanky, clunky lids you've brought for lil old abner. let the fun begin.
