Surprise

Spring is almost here and Mama is almost beside herself with joy!  All the daffodils Mama planted over the years are coming up and soon will bloom.  The birds are singing like crazy and we think we heard some new birds chirping away. Soon there will be new life all around!!


Speaking of new life, Mama has always preached to us bout being good and we  all  KNEW what that word  meant!  Mama has only one question . . . . . .



As you and I both know, the answer can only be found in the card - enjoy.



??????????????


I have entered my card in the following challenges:

Color Create Challenge- The fruit I have chosen are strawberries, bananas and kiwi
Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog - Pink, brown or baby themed
Fairy Knoll - A little Green

I do appreciate y'all stopping by Mama's for a visit -- all comments are gratefully accepted!
Hugs -- Sandy

Oh, Mountain Mamma! I'm holding my sides, laughing like crazy to see your latest card. Where do you come up with all these sensational idea??? Well humor aside, this is beautifully done and who cares if you scraplifted from Pat! That's what CASE-ing is all about! That stands for Copy And Share Everything. Your's isn't exactly the same, not the same paper and flowers and you colored her differently, so it's quite original. Another wonderful zaney creation by our Beloved Mountain Mamma!
Hugs,
Barb

Card Crazy said...

Oh dear, Sandy, you're a very naughty lady. The card is so pretty, with the beautiful little pink bows and that gorgeous flower arrangement. How could such a sweetie end up on this card? She sure didn't listen to Mama but now she's constantly humming to herself.

LOL, Sandy, you always manage to crack me up and bring a grin to my face.
A precious card. Love this adorable pregnant Tilda image—don’t think I’ve seen her prior to this challenge. Beautiful colouring. Love your layout. I like that tag-in-a-pocket idea.

Hugs,
Norma

Candy said...

Oh Sandy!!!
Another card that has us all laughing our heads off.
DELIGHTFUL - so nice to come visit your blog and always leave so happy.
Tilda is coloured beautifully :o)
LOVE all of your embossing and pretty pink ribbons.
The tag is such a nice touch.
You know how we all feel about the inside * big grin *
Love, Candy

cabio's craft corner said...

Can this be more funny? NO. LOL, Sandy, you are so clever on making your card to medicate others. I think no matter how bad the recipient feel, but once he/she got the cards from you, they sure cheer up right after. Thank so much for sharing another awesome card :o)
Hugs,
Cabio

Iulia said...

Hiya, Sandy! You and Pat there are such a match; you really work hand in hand so as not to leave a story half told. So, this one is about pregnancy. I was pretty sure before seeing the inside of your card that it was not an expected one:))
Lovely card, you sweet funny pretty lady! Life is never dull with you around:))
Now about the card in itself: love your coloring most of all, then the lovely papers and layouts. Those tiny bows look gorgeous and the color choice of green and pink is always a winner. Love the romantic look which attenuates a bit the "inconvenient accident" issue:))
I'm always waiting impatiently for your next card/story and I'm never disappointed! Good work, sweetheart!
PS1. Thanks for visiting my blog, Sandy. It's always great to hear from you. Still, if you keep praising my work I'll soon become vain and conceited:))) So, I expect you to criticize my work:)

PS2. "birds singing like crazy"... that's brilliant:)))

Sharon said...

Oh what a delightful post and I so enjoyed reading all the comments above too... your card is delightful Sandy, such a pleasure popping by... hugs Sharon x

Patricia Garcia said...

Christine said...

LOL, what a great card! That inside is so perfect for her, very creative! Great to see an older Tilda, too.

Maureen said...

Oh Sandy, you slay me! You definitely have a hilarious view of the world. I always wondered about this stamp; I dunno... I guess I feel Tilda is a bit too young to be expecting! But your take is hilarious! And yeah, now I have that dang song rolling around my head!

Great card BTW, and thank you so much for adding my DigiDrawn button to your sidebar! You are a dear!
