I found out while trying to make this card that there is absolutely no way mutnik and I can be related. Trying to make this scene filled my recycle bin. This one smeared too right by the ball so that is why I added a little bit of grass (a mutnik solution!!). I simply could not start over. Sis, sent me a copy of her background and I tried to put my card together to resemble it!!!
My Bad News BassethoundsÂ’ player is Billy #11. After the picnic (see mutnikÂ’s card), all team members posed for individual team pictures. I would love to come up with a fun story for our Teaparty but it is so hard when a young man is facing chemo tomorrow. I just want Andrew to see that a lot of us silly teapartiers are sending him thoughts and prayers to get through this difficult time. I know homemade cards make me feel better and I hope they will for Andrew too. I will mail this tomorrow.
I love Tuesdays and the awesome group of people who make it such a fun time.
Thank you for looking!!!

Fabulous team picture, Connie Jo! It's so wonderfully creative and I just know it will make Andrew's day brighter. Billy is sure to love it, too. Thanks so much for the love in this awesome creation of heart.

ok, sis, the tree is a little sad but I really got tired trying to make everything look good.......the tree is in need of some water to plump up again. It is the heat we are having here in Colorado!!!

Oh how funny is Broom? Just between you and her and 42,000 other viewers! Sorry, just thought that was too funny to let it pass. Is Joan right? Can we ask mutnik for help on our cards? Why didn't anyone tell me this sooner? If I had her help, all my cards would look good too(well at least the part she helped out on)!
On to your fabulous card...WOW...of course you are related to mutnik! Just look at this gorgeous creation! Why, I can even see the PINSTRIPES on his pants! He is dressed in black and gold from his head to his toes(I mean paws)! He has his BASEBALL CAP and is going after the BALL! Oh and just look...he is wearing BASEBALL SOCKS(is there such a thing?)and BASEBALL CLEATS! Your card is definitely a BASEHIT! I love it, Andrew will love it, and so will everyone else!
