This week our cards are going to another beautiful Sunshine state on the "other coast" from me. That's Florida for those that don't know. Sandy is going through another bout of chemo for Breast Cancer , so some Tea Party good wishes are on their way!
Anyway, this little sweet round card is what ended up with.
I had flying dodgeballs with butterflies,
there was a big one with lace,
but this sweet little redesigned one,
is my saving grace.
It might not be all the rage,
but it's got the pink, purple and sage.
It's surface has a shimmer that you can see
when it's headed straight for you and me.
The edging is ruffled with a deco fan
just don't kick it as hard as you can.
I'd swear I was in the sauna with Donna
but it was just a cursed hot flash.
Deanna will love this little redesigner
she won't have to spend a lot of cash.
Molly won't get this case,
Cuz' Chad Inventafad
will win this designers race.
The edge was done with the MS Deco Fan corner punch.
Button Button,
who's got the button
wow did that bring back ancient memories. Grandpa used to play this with us eons ago, sometimes he had a big penny for us, other time it was a whole dollar.
Thanks for those wonderful ancient memories, Cindy!

Very pretty! I like the cheery bright colors that you used. The deco fan edge is a really nice touch on this card, and I see that you did NOT forget a button...

So now I have to find out more about that technique - awesome. Your design reminds me of the Pennsylvania Dutch Hex signs which I love. Wonderfully done!

Wowza! This is so very eye catching Jennifer! I love it.....I just saw a very cool, very fun, set of dishes that had a wonderful design in the same colors, just like this card! They were the coolest! I love those colors. That nestie sure made a beautiful ornate dodgeball. This is very nicely done! And whisper....I like your 4th of July one too! They are both very cool!
