Here is my card for 2 challenges; SC and MMTPT38! It took me a little while to figure out I could turn hearts into strawberries. Don't laugh, I've seen trees turn into carrots last week, look at this card from Lorraine (pidgesmom) :
see... I wasn't kidding! I also enjoyed using Roxie's sketch from Sabrina's (cook22) gallery. Thank you girls, it's awesome. Cut out flowers and used 2 way glue to stick them. The french sentiment if from a su french set.
I also made a Birthday card for my sister Bettym she has been longing for a hedgie card for so long and I am so happy to offer this colorful one, and in her favorite color too, hers is red.
I'm glad I finally made it though with my little hedgie friend, isn't he cute all golded up for the teapot party. One thing I'll say for him, he's got class!
The link to the party is here if you want to join in the fun:

Magnifique! Well, I turned hearts into strawberries a while back, I'm all for it. Especially when you have a whole basketful of such lovely juicy looking ones. And that glammed-up hedgie - mine will be the country cousin at this tea-party. Unless your one has some gold spray tucked into the basket instead of whipped cream!!

This is precious! You did such a good job combining all that you wanted to do today! Who'd a thunk! We are on a roll, two weeks in a row, shapes being disquised as other shapes! Snort! We will see what next week will bring!
The gold embossing is so fancy schmancy! You will be the best dressed at the teaparty, not sure that is a good thing if the whipped cream starts flying like last weeks frosting did!
So happy to see you Peggy...glad you could come again. Your card is da bomb! Hope your little hedgehog doesn't get in a strawberry tug-o-war with Lois' Bad Charlie!
Thanks for the link...thanks for coming! You rock!
