Well, I knew that big wheel would get around to you soon...well deserving of this crown you are...you always leave such fun and sweet comments on cards in the galleries of all the challenges you do....so enjoy your reign....and good thing you've been strengthening your shoulder muscles carrying that purse around cuz the crown is heavy.....
Ramon was sure flabbergasted when he heard you didn't have any flamingoes....why that is downright sad....so he went down to the shore and rounded up some of the gang and is headed your way for a flocking....HEEHEEEHEE!!! He's takin the back road so he doesn't get slowed down by silly people that don't know birds can drive...but one morning you'll wake up and go outside to get your paper and lo and behold....a HUGE flock of flamingoes will have landed....your crown is on the inside...these silly birds couldn't stop arguing about which one was gonna wear it....heehee

That would be fun. We see them from time to time and it always brings a smile. Love your truckload of flamingos...hope those are not all Ramon's kids...he has been a busy guy from what I've read in the Teapot party. LOL
Cool card Sheri, you sure did a mighty fine job of caseing our dear Queen's card. TFS Let me know if you ever do it to someone okay.LOL

What fun!!! Love it... Want to be there to see the look on CJ9's face when that flock of flamingos land at her place. They'll probably gather round that tree of hers and sing some royal anthem to her. Great card...

Lucky, lucky, Connie JO. I mean who wouldn't want a whole yard full of flaming pink flamingos?!! They will add a lovely POP of color against the wonderful spring greens. Quite striking really. You did a marvelous job constructing a custom made vehicle for your gorgeous ladies as well (I guess the men wear pink too, don't they?!! They are in touch with their feminine side). I did have a phone call once for an apartment I was renting and the gentleman wondered if he could bring his ostrich. He said he rode it to work, but methinks he was pullin' ma leg!!!

OMG - too funny! Love this amazing CASE of Connie's card, and how you managed to bring the whole the tea party to Colorado. Always love to see the yard of someone who's been flocked... it's so colorful and fun, and here in Michigan, a rare treat to see flamingos.

This is too much fun and a great take on Connie Jo's card! I love the flamingo flocking idea, and actually someone did pull that on a friend of mine who happens to HATE flamingo images! She came home from church to find her lawn completely covered with those dreaded pink birds and she drove right by her house as if she didn't even live there! ROFL!! This is just great with those birds driving a pick up truck! Love it!!

I sure hope that truck makes it before some patrolman questions the driver...
I am not sure which is better, the card or the story - both are just great. It is so thoughtful of you to provide flamingos to those in need.
