I have a great fondness for chickens. Surprising, I know. *wink* When it came time to submit spring 2007 images to Whipper Snapper, I HAD to send in some chickens. One of the images is a lineup of fat-bottomed Hen & Chicks, who in my opinion look like they're up to no good.
Just a few days ago I received a card in the mail. I opened the envelope, and I nearly fainted!
Rosie, of Rosie's Roadshow, created this card for me in celebration of spring. A Rosie card, made just for ME!?! GASP!
If you can imagine how super it feels to receive something from one of your stampin' idols, imagine that feeling multiplied time and time and TIME again - that's how I felt when I opened the envelope and saw what I saw!
I am STILL totally delighted, tongue-tied, and WOW'd to see MY fat-bottomed Hen & Chicks so fat and happy, enjoying a Rosie's Roadshow trampoline in this brilliant design! These are some happy spoiled chickens, that's for sure!
Miss Rosie, thank YOU for sharing your creative-being with the world -- and with me. You are truly amazing!
And THEN! If that wasn't enough...more knock-my-socks-off mail!
Linda Berge is a card designer for Rosie's Roadshow, and I have admired Linda's work for years. Her cards can be found online in her Rosie's Roadshow gallery, and in numerous stamping publications...
...AND IN MY MAILBOX!!
It was another feeling of PURE delight when I received this card from Linda! Every one of the designs Linda creates totally amazes me. With the whimsical lineup of Roadshow critters, accessories, and props, Linda's cards are all brilliantly designed.
HUGE thanks to YOU, Linda, for sharing your energy with all of us!
How did I get so lucky?
