Political Humor #2 (no pun intended)


This week's Dude Time Doodles Challenge is the Freebie/Guest Designer challenge. If you like freebies and would like to be a guest designer for Dude Time Doodles, you need to try out this challenge. The images are soooo fun and this design team is super fun to work with. I won the May challenge, and I highly recommend entering.

This month's image is a toilet or loo or whatever you want to call it. Visit Dude Time Doodles for the details and grab the image. If you do nothing else, go to the blog and check out what the Design Team came up with - it is some pretty creative stuff! Who knew that a toilet could be used to make so many different cards!

I went with some political humor (the second card I have ever made that had a political current running through it). My Mother loves political humor (especially when it matches up with her current way of thinking) and so does her cousin George; so this card will be going to George who will totally flip over it. I used some SU! cardstock and papers from my stash plus this great freebie image from Dude Time Doodles. A few stars punched out with a Creative Memories star punch and a handdrawn arrow and I was done!

Doesn't this image just get you going? LOL!

    Well that's got to be the best card I've ever seen with a loo!! Who'd have thought you could make the porcelain throne look so patriotic? Great card and such a shame the sentiment could be applied to so many countries at the moment!

    Such a clever way to use this image. I love how we all came up with completely different ideas.

    Yes it got me going!!! I saw this in my blog roll on the side of my blog and said "That is not a Toilet on Nutzi card"....well it was, it is, and it's there!!! You have me going...(Pardon the Pun)hahaha I have to go check the DT creations. I would have had to come up with something with a toilet paper roll and a toilet paper flower. This card is so fun. I am sure George will love it. Thanks for the laugh!

    Too funny, great job!!!!! :) Although I must admit, I've given up hope for the political future of this country - I am going to move to a tropical island and be the Queen. :)

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Language Plays, Billiard Balls, and Some "Interesting" Wine

 I always look forward to the new **Art*Journal*Journey* Theme each month. The May theme was chosen by Elle and she chose Language as the theme. So many cool things you can do with that theme.  This weekend I chose to do the Language(s) of God in my Journaling Bible.  When I started, I was going to do Fasting as a way of speaking to God but after listening to a Sermon on Fasting, I realized that was more complicated and I would have to study it more first. So I switched gears midstream and just did some of ways that God speaks to us and vice versa.  There are many more, but I put the ones I could think of quickly here.   The papers are from an old hymnal and Close to My Heart (CTMH).  The gnome is CTMH as well.  Now I have played with all the gnomes in the set,and I totally love them. While looking for the hymnal paper, I ran across an old song book that I was saving.  It was damaged so I knew it would have to be recycled into something....

A Covered Bridge, a Shotgun Wedding, Patton Wisdom, and Some Art

 On our recent vaction, hubby and I got back to our historical marker seeking.  This time we visited the Clarkson Covered Bridge. It is super long and very cool.  We also found a website HERE that has a mapped out tour of Alabama where you can visit 7 in one day - a fun trip for a Fall weekend.  This is the only picture I took of the bridge. The day before, we visited the Patton Musuem at Ft. Knox, Kentucky and viewed Ft. Knox from as close as they will let you get. They say there is still a ton of gold in Ft. Knox - trillions of dollars worth.  We liked the Patton Museum.  I don't agree with most of Patton's management style, but do respect that he accomplished much.  I was impressed with some of his leadership statements like this one which I totally agree with: They have some fabulous items at the museum - hubby could have looked for hours and hours if I had let him. They have planes, tanks, and other vehicles there too so you can see exactly what ...
