This is my card for yesterday's challenge - Make a card using scallops. This is my story:
1. McStamper sent me these awesome chicken images! Working for The Egg & I restaurant I am always in need of chicken cards. Baawk! Baawk! Thank you to the Queen of Chickens!
2. In my stamping room, I have one of those office chairs that's on rollers. It has always had a funny squeak when I move (Like a spooky/creaking door in a thriller movie).
3. Today while I was making a chicken card, the tone of the squeak totally changed. I reached over to get something, turned my chair a little, and a big, loud Mmmmoooooo! came bellowing out from under my chair!
4. It was cool...while making a chicken card, I had sound effects from the farm! Tommorrow I need to make a 4th of July card....Yikes! Hope my chair doesn't decide to do explosions at 3:00 in the am!
Note: This picture doesn't do this card justice. As you can see by the shadow, the awning on the card sticks out about an inch over the chic's heads. (Like my recent Bella card) The picture makes it look like it is flat to the card. My photographer should have taken a side-angle view, probably have to have some words with him!

Cindy,
This is an awsome card and the story behind it has me chuckling. "Laughter doeth good like a medicine", so says Jerry Clower. You might want to turn that chair upside down and make sure there is no noise maker implanted. Hee Hee.

I see Cindy and I see Charlene and, oh!, there's Traci and Barb!!! (remember Romper Room?) I get to be the one on the far right with the big b__bs (can I write this on SCS??) since in reality I have none (in my next life, they'll be bigger), and she's got those awesome dangling earrings and polkadot dress.
This is SUPAH CUTE!!!! I LOVE your awning and can see the dimension to it so don't chastise Kenny (he did good!). And these awesome bright and cheery colors just make me smile. Oh heck! I just love everything about this supah cute chic cafe card!
