Sheesh!!!! I was ready to upload my card and realized I had forgotten to do the paper piercing!!!!! I chose to use my new set "Oh Whale" and make a card for my soon to be 2 (on June 7th) year old DGS because he was just enrolled into the 2K program at his daycare. He is in love with fish at the moment, so I thought he would like this and I put a gogglie eye on the whale to also grab his attention. I thought the alphabet whale spout was appropriate as he can say his ABC's pretty darn good for an almost 2 year old I popped my whale up on pop dots using the Happy Whale SU die. Had a hard time getting the die to cut correctly around my stamped image. I found this to be true with other SU dies that match their stamps. Is anyone else having this problem too? Just curious and wondering if it is me, even after 4 cuts with this die to get it right. Anyway, thanks Denise for a great challenge and TFL!!

What a cute and fun card. Luckily you remembered just in time. I can't tell you how many times I've caught myself....and missed sometimes too!

so cute Mary....glad you caught it in time. How sweet that your DGS knows his abc's already, I'm sure he will love his little alphabet whale then... Love how you did the piercing .... I'm not sure about the fit of the dies and the stamps, I haven't used mine yet.... I've had a few other matching dies from other companies that didn't quite match up... Oh no.... Now you have me thinking it was me... Naaaaaa, it has to be the dies.... lol.... right... btw, love the cute design of this also.. great job

very sweet, perfect for the little guy! I was skyping with my granddaughter tonight and she all of a sudden broke into singing the ABC's, just because!
