I am late for a very important date.....last week's Tuesday Teapot Party for Sam the Man!!! I did a card but this one is for Mark who is facing two years of chemo therapy. I am always humbled at the thought of one so young facing so much. Mark's favorite football team is the Florida Gators.....love those colors!!! They resemble the old colors of our Denver Broncos team. I know exactly what Mark will say when he sees this card....the helmet is supposed to be orange. I checked google before coloring but by the time I climbed the stairs and took out my colors (remember I AM old...just ask Annie Jo), I colored the helmet BLUE!! I could of tried to put orange over the blue, HOWEVER, I put glossy accents over the helmet to give it texture. I keep telling you how pitiful I am!!! Do you think Mark will notice....YEP!!! Males seem to be able to remember EVERYTHING about their sports players, teams, stats, etc. This will be in the mail to Mark by tomorrow. Thank you Cindy and Peggy for bringing this little guy to our attention. Love making cards for my friends and people who need a smile.
hugs to all of my SCS sisters!!!

Bwahaha! Love that you forgot what you were doing by the time you got up the stairs! Tee Hee! I am right there with ya girlfriend! Hey, at least you can MAKE IT UP AND DOWN THE STAIRS! Snort!
I say nawww....he won't notice, besides that...he realizes all these cards are coming from a bunch of goofy teapotters and how much are they gonna know about sports! At least you got a football player holding a football on your card! Sam, the Ham was trying to kick a golf ball through the field goals! That's when she gave up and started crying. She ruined her pedicure and now her toe nail looks all beat up! Ooh..maybe she can get some cute little high heeled boots! Yah, thats the plan!
No worries about being late.....Mark's card rocks and we could wait forever for that! hus, sis!

Cool card ConnieJo! I love the football field and the colours you chose. The helmet looks good in blue, but you know me and my "blue thing". LOL Mark will be extactic when he gets this. And don't think he'll care so much that the helmet is blue, but more that you and ol lady from Colorado (wink) made a card for him. You know I love teasing you, you are the sweetest, and I love that you thought of our little friend Mark. You inspired me too, because you have some friends you write to also. Hugs sweet friend. TFS
