First, the jokeÂ…..
SO, what do you call a cow that doesn’t give milk?........No, it’s not Curt. hehe ……It’s a “milk dud”. hahahahaha
We went to the California State Fair last night so I thought I wouldnÂ’t be able to do a MMTPT Tuesday with Curt card. Much to my surprise, he was the entertainment! So I snapped this photo of him right there on the stage in the food court area. Go figure. That Curt is EVERYWHERE! Â…Â… confused? Go here to see what IÂ’m talking about Â…Â…now my deetsÂ…Â…
I received an e-mail from Stampavie – Creations July issue. Go here then scroll down to page 17 to see my inspiration for Curt’s stage. It's called Ballerina on Stage by Diane Zechman or cookiestamper on SCS.
I actually put real fabric on for the curtains, did a little sewing machine stitching. Twine was used for the tie backs. Scored a piece of cs then glued on for fabric to make the valance.
Coloring was done with copics. The dots in the bg are from a Stamps by Judith stub. The balls Curt is juggling are the new Candi embellishments popping up everywhere.
Well, I am off to the grocery store. Have a great day! By the way you teapot partiers, the cards in the gallery are looking SO FINE today! CanÂ’t wait to get back and really look at themÂ…Â…..TFL :0)

I have been anxiously waiting to see what Curt and you would come up with for this challenge! This is over the top funny!!! I love the joke too!! Your stage for Curt is Fantastic!! Curt is quite the juggling Jester!! Pretty spiffy in his costume too!! I love Curt's pants, you can see his skinny legs through them, and he even has a bow on his tail!! Curt is a "One Cow Show"!!

All the world's a stage and we are but players - Curt's the court jester. I love everything - the stage, the spotted backdrop, and those wonderful brads he's juggling. I thought that looked like real fabric - neato!
