Here I am at last with my first card of the day. I was speaking on the "pone" with Patti, this morning. You know that Duchess out there in the Clovis boondocks. I just add the link to that song:
Notice the manly voice!!! Kidding aside, I love this song!
Anyway, she says she doesn't watch much TV, but she sure knows how marketing works. All through the conversation I hear RED...then funny lady...then TSC...from time to time. I tell you, we need to watch that girl, even if she seems too nice (wink). So here is my Twisted challenge card for this week. Would you be surprised if I told you we needed to make a red and white card, with a neutral colour and it had to be funny and had to be for a woman!!! LOL
The inside says: The dogs ate your flowers...ah well, Happy Mother's day anyway!
Edit: THE IDEA WAS PATTI'S
Of course, I put my neurones on overdrive and thought of adding the QFTD game in here,
and honour once more our Fabulous Cathleen (ctorina) with another caseing of hers. If I was Deena (moonrise), I would probably be ashamed of caseing this card so close, but of course you know by now, I have no shame! So here you go Cathleen, hope you like this one, this was my inspiration (pretty close huh):
As my Neva would probably say, no card is complete without a 3rd challenge. So here I used the image from this cool greenrainbow website Stephanie has introduced to us for this week's IC:
Sketched over the dogs, the rest I hand drawn, which was easy, grass and the little grey dots and flowers.
How's that for a Saturday! I'd say, pretty complete. Had my saturday chat with my buddy Patti, (even if she works for the CIA, brainwashing department) and honoured our sweet Cathleen and did my favourite challenge of all the IC with Stephanie. AAAAAAAAAAAAnnnnnnnd, most of all, hope I made you laugh or think after reading, "phew, I'm not such a basket case after all" LOL
Thanks for looking, and if you read me, I love you.
...but of course I love you even if you didn't! LOL

Don't worry Giggles, I read you. Those dogs are so adorable. I've really been into dogs since everyone here seems to have one but me. And I want one so bad. Great senti too. Hugs from the great state of Wyoming!

Awww Peggy watcha talkin' about?! I would never be ashamed of casing when the casing comes out as cute (and original) as yours do!!! Your doggies are so cute, and I see you are gaining confidence from your sketching classes!! Fabulous my friend!!
