This is the card I made to honor Curthy (Mutnik) in the today's Featured Stamper Challenge! I am tickled pink Curthy was chosen.
This is my story!
1. How could I not choose one of Mutnik's Teapot Tuesday cards especially the one that started an obsession with Curt, the Squirt! Week after week she blows me away at how creative and amazing her cards are. Most times she can't mail them to someone *normal* but who cares, right Curthy?
2. You might wonder why I am calling Cathy Curthy! It's cuz ever since Curt the Squirt got stuck on the moon trying to be a Hollywood Stunt Cow Cathy and her sister, Con-Air (that's a whole nuther story!) have been obsessed by Curt and his kin. I know it sounds confusing but it happened on a Tuesday! Snort!
3. Curt owes Curthy alot as she steered him in the right direction when he failed as a stunt cow (he's just a squirt!) and she saved him while skiing. He's making necklaces now, has his own jewelry business and is kickin' butt! That's one of his famous necklaces on my card! Anyway, word spread fast when Curthy was honored today. The California Cows are whooping it up cuz they know Curt loves his new best friend, Mutnik!
4. Alicia wanted to be here but she is filming a movie in Barbados. After winning the California Cow contest she just has been booked solid. And all you Kirsten fans, ain't nobody gonna tell me Kirsten won, cuz Alicia is my cow and she was the winner! So there! Go Alicia!
Curthy, you know I am your biggest fan! Your sister is gonna perform for everyone after you comment on all these cards honoring you! She's gotta new trick! Snort!

Cindy, this is incredible. I LOVE that image of the cow "butts" and the storyline sounds like it's been going on for some time, BUTT I'm not in the know about all that. I can tell you and Mutnik are the bestes of "Butties" though!! Great card and great story!! TFS!

Russian spies and now cow butts. What is SCS coming to? LOL, this is too, too funny. I just love how you reversed her card and your story is terrific. Another fantastic addition to Curt's saga.

Cindy, I can almost hear your giggle as you put this card full of cows together!! I am sure you probably even came up with a new story for a teapot tuesday somewhere down the line. Love your creative take on this and Curt's necklace as an added luxury bonus!
How funny! Cindy, you always have me laughing at your creativity! Now it's cow butts! I'm sure your card will be appreciated--she seems to have quite a sense of humor-- I decided after seeing her gallery!

What a great card - not only does it show your sense of humor, but you manage to tie in so many elements from the past as well as today's challenge - and in such a creative and artistic manner.
