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)
Hi Sis! Hi NC Sis!

Over-the-top adorable, Cathy. That Curt is such a multi-talented bovine! : ) Love your scene....and I'm sure Jake will too. I'm always in awe of your creative cards!

I knew Curt would be a kick this week! Hey, when I pick a teapot, I get an image in my head....and believe it or not, you still out do what I picture in my head! Real material? Wowza...you are very creative there Goofball Curthy! What a great addition to Jake's collection! Tee hee!
Hey, your joke is pretty funny too! I suspect Curt is a milk dud.....how could an entramanure of his stature spend time worrying about milk...I still get confused about if boy cows can do milk...can they? Where's Tosh, she will tell us!
I wish I had some black and white polka dotted balls I could juggle!

Curt must have been roasting in that costume, and keeping those balls all up in the air at once...that's no joke! Love all of the glorious details of Curt's costume, the stage and the wonderful curtains. Thanks for my weekly Curt-grin!

I am so in love with Curt -- and this outfit just has me in stitches -- he looks so handsome all dressed up like a Jester. Such a rib tickler of a card -- love it so much

Awesome! Love all the bright colours, Curt is obviously a professional juggler, and look at those fancy balls! Great job on the curtain, another fabulous creation!
