CAS[E] this Sketch #207

I'm back as the designer at CAS[E] this Sketch this week ... I know, right?!  Who knew I could do it?!


I created this little card with a very old, very well loved die from Reverse Confetti ... that I do NOT play cards with often enough!  You may detect a bit of my humor, if you read between the 'tears' ...  and if you know the song?  I hope you sing [and play] along!

For CTS #207:


"I hope, if there are tears, they are all happy ones!"

 
I'm always so happy to have visitors here ...
while I'm thinking of it, be sure you are not a
'no-reply' blogger ... I'd love to say thank you
in a more personal way!

Now let's go see what my fab teamies have made!

Great fun papers Michele! (I think I'm still 'no reply' but still haven't worked it out, so so computer illiterate).

Joyce said...

This is fabulous. I think I recognize those papers, too. Love the tears.

Happy Dance said...

A little Leslie Gore if memory serves..... Those tears are a great idea; they work so well for this sketch. And what a punny birthday card, too. You're always so clever! Fun!! Bev

Lisa Elton said...

I couldn't wait to see your card up close, because I thought they were CHICKENS running amok. Please don't be upset and excuse this ol' gal with very bad eyesight and a wild imagination! Love your take on your fabulous sketch!

Cat Craig said...

Oh you serial earwormer you!!! lol. Now that darned song will be in my head. Love those paisley-esque shapes and all the color on white. Nicely done.

Brenda said...

Bobby said...

I hate to tell you what I first saw when I looked at your card, Michele, but I'll cry if I want to because that's what I do when I laugh too hard.

Barb Ghig said...

I could have sworn I left love here yesterday for this fabulous card...must have gotten distracted :)
I love the patterned papers you chose for these teardrops! Wish I knew the song, though...I know you always think of clever ways to include meaning on your cards...So pretty, Michele!

Sharron said...

Oh, I thought they were birds too! I wasn't going to say anything so you wouldn't think I was crazy but Donna's comment made me feel better! Those images below the teardrops look so much like they belong on a bird!!

Celeste Goff said...

Petra Swart said...

Oh, my, Michele, I had to LOL at Donna's comment!!!!! ...me, too, had seen chickens running around when I had a first look!!!!!! LOL!!!! Hope you're not upset - that was only for a split sec (the chickens), and then I saw your clever self in it!!!! And yes, I loved that song in my young days when I was at varsity (I actually still love it!!!!) Love, love, LOVE the fun papers you used - how wonderful that 'Happy Birthday' banner fits, hey!!!! So cute, my friend, and a GREAT sketch (you did it!!!) - hope to have time to play along this week!!!!!

Donna said...

Yep... other Donna saw what I thought initially. And yes, song popped straight into my head...
'It's my party and I'll cry if I want to'...
Can't actually remember why they were crying though!!!

Oh Michele, I wish I had an ounce of your cleverness and creativity! What a fun, bright and cheerful card. I got the reference right away. I also read some of the comments and wondered what the ladies were talking about. So I looked again and I get it. Hey you got clever on so many levels! You are fabulous and so is your card! :) Hugs!
