Some of you may be aware of my friend Cindy aka Mothermark. Well she is a bit of a character and is always making everyone laugh with her goofball antics. Well it was decided that we would surprise Cindy with a goofball challenge and send the cards we made to her.
We had a few guidelines we had to follow which was:
1. must have googlie eyes on it
2. must have polkadots on it
3. must tell a story
4. must be goofy!!!!
Well I think this card covers all those things. When I first heard of this challenge my first thought was to create a card that confused the word goofball with golf ball ... and then we were sent the guidelines so I did my best to combine the two.
The layout for this card is last week's SFYTT sketch from Jen at Iheart2stamp's blog.

Hee! The play on goofball/golfball is perfect, Frances, cause we know how she loves to turn words around! This is so adorable, and I love the Basic Grey dp you used.

You guys are killing me today...I just keep opening up one great card after another....the word of the day must be golf ball! Oh.....it's goofball? Okay, well here is my sentence....
May 14, 2008. On this day all of the goofy goofballs (goofballers) came out of the woodwork in an attempt to honor another goofball (goofballee) but instead their efforts have only encouraged the goofballee to get even when the next challenges are assigned to the goofballers. In other words......just you wait Hootsie....you might be wise but you and the other goofballers will pay the price! I know, I know, you ain't skeerd! Snort!
