My darling, sweet, fun, AND funny friend Linda Callahan of Stampin' Seasons, is my playdate for Playing Cards with Friends June 2022! Linda and I often hear songs in our heads when viewing one another's cards - so today I made that part of our assignment! But not just ANY song - oh, no! Today we will be:
- Making it a birthday card
- inspired by a song by Prince! Yeah - it's a thing! Go to National Today.com to read all about it!
- Choose a color from one of [or use all of] these colorful Prince songs:
- Raspberry Beret
- Purple Rain or
- Little Red Corvette
"Hope you don't mind - I schtarted the party a wine bit early!"
An old set [no longer available] from SugarPea Designs. I can almost hear her feathered butt hitting the floor! A 'CHEEP' date just like me! LOL
Linda, thanks so much for accepting my invitation! I hope you've had as much fun as I had with this assignment! Can't wait another second to come see ... and I hope my friends will join me! Cheers to you, and another for Prince - he sure did know how to make my pants get up & dance!

As mentioned, this set, and the sentiment are no longer available - the die is from Paper Rose: Wonky Scalloped Circles & Border dies.
Thank you so much for the invite! It was fun putting my card together since I just couldn’t pick one color and had to figure out how to use all three! Thank God you didn’t give me
ReplyDeletesix choices! Your chick is delightful ….and fortunately did not
lose that raspberry beret when she plopped down! (I would probably have face planted) I think she is having a good time celebrating Prince’s birthday! Your scallopy circle with the hint of raspberry is the perfect frame! Fun and adorable card! It was great playing cards with you my friend……xox
Oh my goodness! This is such a fantastic recipe! I always blurt out a song as they pop into my head. and I have a friend for which Raspberry Beret if our go to! This card is fantastic anyway, but the back story makes it ever so special!!!!! Love it!!
ReplyDeleteAs cute as that tipsy chick is, it's your inside sentiment that really makes the card, Michele. So fun and sassy!
ReplyDeleteFun and fabulous your card is...love the themes you all used. Heading over to see Linda's creation.
ReplyDeleteThis is my kind of birthday card! Love it! —- JulesP
ReplyDeleteLOL! This reminds me of a certain friend. Love the sentiment and of course that cute chick with her raspberry beret!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, LOVE this Michele!! Totally fits your sense of humor (LOVE the inside too!!) AND the song! Well done my friend!! Off to see what Linda did!! Thanks for my chuckle today!!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteOh boy, now that sounds like a fun challenge and I am sure Linda was up for it as much as you were! CUTE little chick...her beret is tres chic!
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love about a tipsy chick in a raspberry beret? Everything here adds up to cute. It's a royal flush!! See what I did there... Prince... royal ~ HA!
ReplyDeleteThis is so super fun, Michele!!! That beret-wearing chick is totally fabulous!!! And now you've got me singing over here :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun challenge you came up with for today Michele! I didn't know that it was Prince's birthday, love all those songs you listed. Your card is just darling, how cute is your chicken wearing her beret and having a glass of wine?! Too cute! Linda's card was amazing too, you ladies did a fabulous job with Prince's songs and honored his memory as well on his birthday! Now these songs are running through my head, which I love. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteWell that's sure an interesting challenge. I do like the Raspberry Beret song and think you did an outstanding job with your challenge. You constantly impress me, Michele! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful and fun card, you have used the colours brilliantly and haven't forgotten to add a touch of grey. Perfect xx
ReplyDeleteOh, what fun! Those foot prints are ever so important in illustrating the story. This is such a giggle, Michele!
ReplyDeleteMichele, your challenge and your card is so much fun!Always love to visit your blog! xo
ReplyDeleteNothing makes me happier than a beret wearing chicken!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and fun, Michele! The tipsy chick wearing a raspberry beret and your message inside make me chuckle. Prince reminds me of the time when I listened to American Top 40 every Saturday (broadcasted in Tokyo) in the 80's.
ReplyDeleteI'm off to see Linda's card!
Hideko xx
Hilarious - love that tipsy chick (complete with beret!) and sentiment (been there, done that!) You and Linda both did a great job with your Prince-inspired cards - way to go Michele!
