I couldn't resist playing in the MMTPT335 challenge again this week, today's Family Circus comic made me do it! The little girl of the family hears 'AULD LANG SYNE on the radio and since Faith our hostess challenged us to use this song as EPEC (extra points, extra cookies), I simply could NOT let this funny go to our newspaper recycle!
Ally's sketch played nicely into my card, I just moved the main elements down to the bottom corner. I used a piece of vintage sheet music that I embossed with the Cuttlebug Allegro folder. Cut a piece of shiny black
paper in a circle (a record base), UTEE'ed the comic. I cut the sentiment from the original and added it as a flag. The 7 Gypsies number tape is counting down the seconds till 2015 begins...
Hopefully, you can read what Dolly is saying:
Above the radio the words ...we'll take a cup of kindness yet for ALUD LANG SYNE. below, she
asks: "Mommy, can I have a cup of kindness before
I go to bed tonight?"
May all of our vessels be filled to overflowing with
kindness. May this new year be full of good health, and the realization that our greatest wealth is in our
families and friends we choose for ourselves!

Perfect recycling, Susan! And you know me, I always like a card with a musical element. The sparkly ric-rac dresses it up perfectly for the new year celebrations.
