Time is running out! I saw this on a sign outside the grocery store. Who do you suppose I saw holding it?.....that's right, our buddy Curt. He is selling necklaces to all who are going to London for the Alice in Wonderland Premier with Johnny Depp. Confused, go Here for the complete and true story......remember it's TUESDAY!.......
Was at the grocery store buying a few snacks before heading off to London. I actually bought a few extra necklaces from Curt. See them on the card? BTW, Curt is in disguise here, thinks he's a faux Cheshire Cat. Go figure.Cute clock Curt! The goose must think it too, has a big smile on it's beak. hehe Plus her back is loaded with colorful characters ready to Part-Tay! This image is from Sassy Cheryl's Digi Store .
The Mudder wanted lot's of color.....I think....anyway there is plenty of color on this here card. Plus my favorite black and white whatevers. My bg was inspired from a scene in the movie Mad Money. Dianne Keaton and her cronies were sitting in a booth. I thought to myself that fabric would make great dp and you know what? It did. hehe It even had the black and white squares.
My image was colored with copics and versa marked and clear ep'd. Cut out with a squiggly square coluzzle. Layered with black cs cut out the same way. Added the white dots with acrylic paint and a stylus.
Drew Curt in his Cheshire Cat costume. He is wearing a black and white beaded necklace to keep his timer on. hehe
Added the red ribbon with a few extra necklaces that are pretty cheap right now. Better hurry and get one! All this went on a black square card adding the white dots like I did above.
Well, I think I see Johhny coming! Gotta run. He'd look pretty good in one of these necklaces don-cha think! hehe.......TFL :0)

Ok, I see why you were too busy to draw me one little itty bitty rabbit ear....I also see that YOUR obsession with Curt will probably ban us from future Teapot Parties by the Mudder!!!
Your card is the bomb!!! I love the image and your coloring and homemade background is just over the top crazy good. I guess I had better keep you as my sister so I can CLAIM some of your cards occasionally. This is now one of my favorites for sure (CLAIM). Love the teeth you added to the goose and the hat.....way too funny. I hope you are getting the hints (CLAIM) I am leaving you about this card!!! tfs.
hugs to my sister....mutnik..... (CLAIM)

Looks like you had so much fun creating this card Cathy, that is what I love about your cards, they always put me in a playful and happy mood. Guess it's your colourful touch and of course playful nature. Those necklaces are soooo pretty! I want to eat one. TFS Missy friend.
