Udder You Lookin' At?


I'm sorry, but that cracks me up every time! LOL! Ah, maybe it's the sleep deprivation making me slap happy, who knows. ;)
This was my card for Gael's "On The Farm" swap. As soon as she posted it over on SCS, this H and M Stamps set came to mind and I couldn't resist siging up!
This is the same H and M set that the "Big Butt Bear" came from. I hesitated buying this set at first, but I've used it for 2 swaps already, and if I *ever* get some time (hey, a girl can dream!), I plan on making a slew of cards to congratulate my "Mmmm...Skinny Bop" friends, which is basically a fab little group that Mary started where we set a weight loss goal, and every time someone reaches a 10-lb. goal, you send them happy mail. To my shame, 2 of these have gone out without a homemade card :( But I'm working on it...and least in my mind! LOL! So that is 3 great uses, and that only covers 1/2 the stamps! My long-winded point is that this set has turned out to be one of the best investments I've made! Yay me! :D
I hope it isn't too obvious that my E25 Copic totally died doing this card. I think the bear did some major damage, and the cow killed it! Darn, I'll just have to order the refill...and of course why pay shipping on just one Copic...so I'll have to buy some new colors. What a bummer! (heehee) Again, with the Nesties, but I tried to make them look a little different by distressing with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Faded Blue Jeans, and adding some grass at the bottom. I also roughed up the edges of the DP and distressed with (I think) Vintage Photo. Finally used my Pewter SU! Jumbo Eyelets, and some twine from Pink Hedgehog.
I hope my fellow swappers like this one, as it was mailed late :(
Btw. Charlie, busy season at work, and the test I have yet to begin studying for, May has been rough and stressful. PTL I only have 1 more swap to finish, and then I will be cramming for my exam full steam ahead!
Thanks for hanging with me through this long-winded, winding post.
Hugs,

Baby Got Back


Hi there!
Well, as you can see, I didn't make much progress (okay, I made ZERO progress) on my blog. But, I did FINALLY get some cards done for swaps.

The one I want to share with you today is for Paola's (Sama on SCS) "What Song Are You?" Swap. Part of the criteria was that you had to use the lyrics. So on the inside it says, "Shake that healthy butt. Baby got back."
Now, as I told my fellow swappers, it's not so much that I like big butts, as it is that I have a big butt and gave up fighting it long ago. Even if I were a size 2 (which I totally am not even close to!), I'd still be draggin' a big ol' wagon. But I've always loved the song, and in the privacy of my own home, sometimes do a little big butt dance. Hey, you gotta laugh and sometimes you gotta shake it, even if only to make yourself laugh. Right???


Happy Tuesday and TFL!
