Here we goÂ…..ItÂ’s Teapot Tuesday so let the craziness begin.
Curt herd about Willy Waddum’s dilemma, not being able to “catch” fish the Willy Waddum Way and having to turn to “chew” as bait. Well he is all set to help the old guy catch fish the “Curt Way”…let me explain….
Curt has a sure fire way to make sure Willy is able to catch at least 42,000 fish and without “chew” for bait. I mean, who wants to eat a fish that’s been “spittin’ n chewin’”? Not me, no way. So he has figured out that if he loads his boat up with hungry fish and goes up stream only to release them at just the right time, these colorful fish will be a jumping into Willy’s boat, no bait required.
I know from experience that this technique works. As youngsters, my Uncle would take my sis and me to Hot Sulphur Springs to do a little fishing in the Colorado River. We ALWAYS caught fish. Now as I look back on the situation, I realized what that white truck was dumping into the river upstream from usÂ…..fishÂ….hungry fish! Guarantee to bite your hook no matter what , kind of fish. So Curt is definitely on to something hereÂ…..confused again I see, go here to get straightened outÂ…Â….now for the how tooÂ’s of this cardÂ….
Needed a boat, so I went back to my grade school days when we would fold paper into shapes. Took me a while but I finally remembered the boat folding. Stamps used for the fish and clouds are from WS-gone fishing set, Curt, strawberries and bg scenery Mutnik. Used a stylus, then prismapencils for the colorful fish, sponged the hills in the bg and wavy water, copics for other parts.
Well, thatÂ’s about it in a nut shell, hope this card isnÂ’t too smelly for ya, after all it is full of fish! HeheÂ…Â…Â…Â…TFL :0)
Hi Sis! Hi NC Sis!
P.S. ….did you happen to notice Curt’s new “hair color”? It is “ strawberry red ”! He had it done special for today. hehe

Wonderfully creative Cathy (as always) but I've got to tell you I am a bit disappointed, I was looking forward to a scene with Curt in diving gear somehow snorkelling and as always up to no good. Curt has been extremely well behaved lately, must be he learned a lesson from his last brush with the law.

Too funny and cute (love Curt's red hair/fur/?). The scene is so adorable with all the adorable fish inthe boat with Curt. The sail on your boat is very cute - you have come prepared! And, I love your story too!

I don't smell fish, but I do smell strawberries!! Could it be that Curt used strawberry Kool-aid to color his hair, or is it all the strawberries you have on this wonderfully crazy card? Like in Curt's necklace tag and the basket and the sail! I like your folded boat, that's a blast from the past!
As always, thanks for the chuckles and letting us know what Curt's up to!!
